Despite passing for only 157 yards between two quarterbacks, FAU used its dominant ground game to take down FIU 49-14 in the 2018 Shula Bowl.

FAU quarterback Chris Robison started the game and completed six of his 10 passes for 90 yards, but was pulled in the second quarter with the game tied at seven.

The Owls then put in De’Andre Johnson and never looked back.
