Absolutely dominated on the glass tonight. Zero 2nd chance points for FAU. 14 2nd chance points for MTSU.

MTSU's magic number for a win this year has been 60. They are undefeated when they reach that total. They are currently on pace for 84.

OUCH.

Hate playing this team.

Scrappy, and always well coached - no matter who they have on the roster.

LaRon Dendy may be gone but the trend lives on…

FAU has missed 6 out of their last 8 shots and trail 67-43 w/11:45 left in the game. MTSU is shooting 50 percent from this half and 53% for the game.

FAU hasnt scored in the last 6 mins. MTSU currently on a 20-2 run. FAU hasnt played this poorly on defense all year.

The MTSU fanbase was calling for their coach to be fired 6 years ago, and they didn't fire him. Now they absolutely think he is awesome.

Lesson learned.

Sometimes there are other factors. Don't fire your coach every time you lose a game!!

Zone defense has really stifled the Owls tonight. After making 4 threes in the 1st half. They have only made 1 in the 2nd half. MTSU 78 FAU 52. 5:35 left in the game.

FAU is getting pounded on the boards but at least have gotten the edge in fast break points. They lead 2-0...

FINAL: FAU 58 MTSU 82. The 82 points allowed by FAU is the most they have given up all year.

FAU was outrebounded 39-19, had zero second chance points, and committed 16 turnovers. Poole led the team in scoring with 16 points.
