¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Uh oh, here come the Herd. #Marshall closes their gap to 6 points via a 9-0 MU run over the last 1:45.#FAU is forced into a timeout to regroup following the failure to score a single FG in over two and a half minutes.

C'mon boys, let's shake this drought!
#FAU’s scoring drought comes to an end after Zecevic hits back-to-back buckets.

Owls are amidst some of the best basketball they’ve played all year!
Surely helps with Ingram is one rebound away from a new career record. He connects with Rich Maitre here for the fastbreak bucket.

HUGE result for @CoachDustyMay's boys as the Owls score 90+ (in regulation) vs. a Division I opponent for the first time since 12/2/2017 (vs. BCU)!
That's two straight wins for FAU (14-9, 6-4), and the 12th total win at The Burrow! pic.twitter.com/siBCigT1GM
Not listed in the tweet is FAU shooting 51% FG, including 43 points in the paint!
We talked earlier about how FAU was attacking the paint against the guard heavy Thundering Herd, and the final stats prove just that!

It looked like we were going to blow the lead again but they regrouped and pulled it together, nice win.
Students are annoying. There was a ton of them tailgating and maybe 10% of them came into the game.
