HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) — Alabama A&M’s defense held Tuskegee to less than 200 yards total offense in a 21-6 win on Saturday night.

The Bulldogs (1-2) limited the Tigers to 54 yards rushing, recovered two fumbles and registered five sacks for minus-31 yards. Willie Fuller was the catalyst on defense for the Bulldogs with 12 total tackles, including five for losses, and a sack.

The Bulldogs came into the game allowing 21 points and 352 yards on offense per game.

Meanwhile, Alabama A&M got enough offense when it counted. Leading 7-6 in the second quarter, Milton G’Alonzo caught a 3-yard touchdown pass from Deaunte Mason with 28 seconds remaining in the first half. The Bulldogs struck for the final time on an 18-yard run by Kaderius Lacey with 3:21 to play in the game.

Alabama A&M has won two straight in the series and increased its lead in the series to 25-19-2.
