BOCA RATON, Fla. – Old Dominion University football cut Florida Atlantic’s lead to five twice in the second half, but three fourth quarter FAU touchdowns proved to be too much as the Owls won 52-33 Saturday night at FAU Stadium.
Trailing 26-7 at the break, ODU came out for the second half strong, as Kesean Strong scored his second touchdown of the night, this one a five-yard rush, to cut the score to 26-14.
After an ODU defensive stop, Blake LaRussa hit Travis Fulgham for a 31-yard touchdown to make it a five-point game. Kerrith White returned the ensuing kickoff 100-yard for a touchdown, but ODU fought back with a Strong touchdown, this a 13-yard run to make the score 32-27.
