After suffering a crushing loss to Oklahoma last Saturday, the Owls came back home and beat the Air Force Falcons 33-26.

Chris Robison, in his second start as quarterback, threw for three touchdowns and 471 yards, breaking Rusty Smith’s single game record of 463.

FAU started the game with back-to-back drives to the red zone but settled for a pair of field goals.
