GAME THREAD: FAU @ Miami - December 22, 2018
Dusty May's takes his depleted roster down to Coral Gables to face the Hurricanes.
What: Florida Atlantic (8-3) vs. Miami (6-4)
When: Saturday, Dec 22nd, @ 2:00 PM Eastern
Where: Watsco Center
Series: UM dominates the series 21-1.
Miami is listed as a -14 favorite over #FAU. Would have to think that the Owls would be closer to a toss-up if A) the game was at The Burrow, and B) Ingram and Stapleton are healthy.

Owls are getting some solid looks, but Sebree has been the only one to convert. The Hurricanes are getting too many extra possessions thanks to an early 6-3 rebounding advantage.

Owls are shooting 20%. Canes are shooting 50%. That's all that needs to be said right now. pic.twitter.com/6j7GEDxwAm

Hurricanes are shooting an insane 57% from 23 shots. Owls getting dominated in every aspect of the game.
Jailyn Ingram, we miss you.

Well, it could've been worse? Owls are shooting closer to their average now, at 30%. BUT... the Canes are shooting 60%. Absolutely ridiculous.
Adger is the only Owl scoring in double digits, 11 points.
Lepichev leads FAU in rebounds with 6.

This game hasn't gone the way we would like, but Lipichev deserves some positive credit. His defensive effort so far this half has been PHENOMENAL. Despite his tough task of guarding Izundu, his off the ball movement & on the ball pressure has been 👍

Owls are shooting -make sure you're sitting down- 9% FG this half. No way to sugarcoat this, it just isn't our day.
