Florida Atlantic falls to 0-2 on the road this season, losing 31-7 to Air Force. After allowing just 29 rushing yards to Fordham, the Owls were unable to translate that success against Air Force's high-powered triple-option offense, giving up 401 rushing yards to the Falcons. Quarterback Haaziq Daniels toyed with FAU on the ground, rushing for 164 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries, including a 94-yard rushing touchdown in the first quarter.
This is the second time the Owls gave up more than 446 yards on the ground this season, as they allowed 400 yards when they made the trip to Gainesville to face off with the Gators in Week 1.
