While the home finale was a disappointment, FIU is headed to the Bahamas Bowl

Coming into Saturday’s season-finale versus Marshall, FIU had for the most part played fundamentally sound football.

Unfortunately, miscues that they’ve been able avoid all season long appeared at the most inconvenient of times.

“The statistics say you have a 75 percent less chance of winning when you have a blocked punt for a touchdown. The missed field-goals and the pick-six, it’s a crazy game,” said FIU head coach Butch Davis post-game.
