  "account": "On Friday, the Florida A&M Rattlers football team faced Alabama State in a homecoming game marked by Hurricane Isaias. Freshman quarterback Armond Parker had already scored two touchdowns before halftime, rushing for a 36-yard score and connecting with running back Jamal Hailey for a 19-yard reception. However, the second half brought challenges as Alabama State took the lead with a touchdown from Jamarie Hostzclaw. Parker was tasked with regaining the lead and rallied his team. He threw an interception for a 50-yard pick-six and another on the following drive, leading Alabama State to a 27-14 halftime lead. Despite struggling in the fourth quarter, Parker orchestrated a comeback. He threw an 88-yard touchdown to Armand Burris and rushed for another score, cutting the gap to 27-20. In the final minutes, Parker completed an 89-yard strike to Burris, sealing a 28-27 victory for FAMU. Parker finished the game 13-for-20 for 290 yards, three passing touchdowns, one rushing touchdown, and two interceptions. This win ended FAMU's four-game losing streak and marked his first win as a starter under first-year head coach Quinn Fordham Gray Sr. The Rattlers now have a 2-4 overall record and 1-1 in the SWAC.",
