The 2018 season got off to a rough start for the Florida Atlantic Owls, as they suffered a 63-14 defeat at the hands of the No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners

The Sooners were favored by over two touchdowns heading into the game. And they quickly proved too much to handle for the underdog, FAU.

After FAU’s opening drive stalled out, Oklahoma took an early 7-0 lead off of a 30-yard rushing touchdown from Rodney Anderson.
