UPDATED SCHEDULE: 2016-2017 FAU Men's Basketball Schedule - FAU Owl's Nest
Go Owls!
Without the big men!
It would be great to see a decent crowd Thursday night.
Delph leads Owls in rebounds on a short night with 6.
Rutherford with a game high 6 assists. While that FAU defensive pressure holds ODU's Caver to 1 assist and while forcing 2 turnovers.
Owls were dominated on the boards. once Delph and Pfister fouled out, I thought that ODU would dominate on the boards even more so. But, FAU made so many of their shots since then, that rebounds were no longer a factor.
In fact, FAU went on a 25-7 run once Delph fouled out at the 6:29 mark.
Owls shot 48.1% FG in the second half, compared to 32% FG in the first. We also shot 10-23 from the three-point arch, equating to 43%.
Like I said, if we were to find one ODU weakness defensively, it would be from the arch.
Final individual stats for #FAU and team stats vs #ODU:

Owls only had the lead for just 2:22, but still victorious 65-51. pic.twitter.com/cvBGV9o5mO
North Texas (0-10 in conference play) comes to the Burrow next week, followed by a Rice team (5-5 CUSA) that we should not take lightly. But having these games at home, THERE SHOULD BE NO EXCUSES!
I don't want to count the chickens before they hatch, but imagine being on a 5 game win streak going into Ruston.
FAU is now on it's first 3 game win streak since Dec. 2014 & first in-conference 3 game win streak since Jan. 2012.
