Agner did a solid job of moving the Owls downfield, but he sees his bomb towards the sideline intercepted for #FAU's first turnover of the season.

The Owls rebounded from a rough first quarter to put a slight scare into the #5 Buckeyes. In fact, FAU BEAT #tOSU 21-17 in the from the first quarter onward.
LOTS to be proud of with our BOYS!

Solid day for Robison, who struggled mightily in the first quarter.
Smith and Leroy settled down for the Owls' defense as well, both having solid days. pic.twitter.com/RJya7q22Vs
Robison looks much better today. Way more composed under pressure. Losing Emmons hurts, but I liked what I saw out of McCammon today.
A lot to build on going into UCF next week.

I am super positive after that game! This feels a lot more like Wisconsin where there is a lot to build on. The defense looks like the real deal and Spencer is a big time upgrade.

Very encouraged by that performance definitely have some positives to build we hung pretty nicely with the #5 team in the country. Let that sink in. If we catch UCF looking ahead next week, watch out. I think that game will be much closer than many realize. Besides Emmons, no other significant injuries to report correct?
