All Eyes on Them: Six players to watch during FAMU’s Orange and Green Spring Football Game

And now, for the main event.

Florida A&M’s spring football camp will culminate in its annual Orange and Green Spring Game on Saturday.

Kickoff is Saturday at 4 p.m. on Ken Riley Field at Bragg Memorial Stadium.

General admission tickets are $15. FAMU’s streaming service, Rattlers Plus, will broadcast the game for fans to watch from home.

The spring game serves as an opportunity for Rattler Nation and college football fans to get a preview of the defending Black College Football National Champions.

FAMU boasts a new-look roster, which includes first-year head coach James Colzie III and an influx of transfers.

Here are six players to watch at the Rattlers’ annual spring game.

Quarterback | Junior Muratovic No. 7, Daniel Richardson No. 10

Florida A&M quarterback Daniel Richardson throws a pass during the Rattlers’ first day of spring football practice in pads on Ken Riley Field at Bragg Memorial Stadium in Tallahassee, Florida, Friday, March 8, 2024.

Everyone wants to know who will be QB1.

Will it be Junior Muratovic or Daniel Richardson?

Saturday will provide a glimpse of the ongoing quarterback battle that has seen Muratovic and Richardson share first-team reps.

Muratovic has been at FAMU since 2021, entering his fourth year in the system. He has two career starts, one as a true freshman and one as a redshirt sophomore last season.

Meanwhile, Richardson transferred to FAMU after stints with Central Michigan and, most recently, Florida Atlantic. Though it’s his first season with the Rattlers and his final year of eligibility, Richardson has 32 career starts on the Football Bowl Subdivision level and quarterbacked CMU to a 2021 Sun Bowl victory.
