Conference USA refs are the worst I have ever seen on a side note.

The team lacks a killer instinct like last year. If we Finish games we are 2-0 in conference play. They need to let Robison throw down field. When we stop we let both MTSU and ODU back in the game. We were so much more talented than ODU it’s absurd. Offense came together great, but defense has to get better.

Refs kind of killed our defense with questionable penalties and kicking out our best player on defense.

There were multiple series where ODU just marched down the field and our defense was unable to stop them. The refs did not help, but we have the capability to be so much better than we have been playing that we should not have to be discussing how the refs impacted us. Why do we keep blowing it in the third quarter?

This is the FAU team from 2017 we've been waiting for.

Yes the defense was spotty but still forced 3-and-outs, got sacks, key interceptions, etc
Early on they said the FAU defense allowed an average of 24.5 points allowed last year.
We allowed 33 points this game.
So about 8.5 points more than we did last year, and ODU probably would have had one TD less if Azeez was in for the entire game.
Granted, ODU is 1-5, 0-3 overall, so I can see where you might expect us to allow less for this particular team.

I think that's a bit unfair considering how they played today.

Yeah but losing azeez is an excuse. Defense has to play better when he isn’t there.
Robison showed tonight why Lane is staying with him thru the ups and downs
