Boom!

How bout them Owls!

Need to get this one…

IT'S A GMAE OF RUNS BABY!

OWLS LEAD!

The lead was fun while we had it, but UNT answers right back.

Don't have a good feeling about this one…

Lines are one thing, being distracted by videos and 90's music is another.

 

Owls have only had one spurt where they've played to their potential.  FAU is 5-31 from 3Pt, with Troutman having yet to make one from out of 8 attempts.

North Texas is 7 minutes away from winning their first conference game this season. Mean Green lead #FAU 54-47.

Troutman is starting to heat up!

We're going to need some more from him if we're going to finish this comeback.

TROUTMAN'S FEELIN' IT!

Gerdarius Troutman begins the game 0-8 from the arch, but has made two straight! Owls coming back, 59-55 4:10 left.
