Owls are hanging around, but seriously need to get some rebounds to attempt second chance points & end UAB possessions. The Blazers had three straight offensive boards to regain momentum.

#FAU will be looking to capitalize on a UAB 0-5 FG drought. Owls down 57-48 with 11:12 remaining.

3 quick passes, all within one step, capped off with an athletic layup by Filer awakens the FAU bench.

BEAUTIFUL transitional ball movement leads to an Adonis Filer layup + an and-one. Owls needed that!

64-51 UAB lead w/ 7:58 left in the game

Going 1-13 from 3PT in the second half isn't going to cut it.

We're running out of time here. Owls have made only 1 of their last 8, resulting a 2:28 long drought. #UAB leads 73-55 with 3:17 left.

Owls can't capitalize on momentum from the win over UTSA, fall to a struggling UAB team in Birmingham.

FAU's last FG was with 5:45 left in the game. The Owls went 0-9 from that moment on. That tells you all you need to know about this one.

FINAL: #FAU falls to #UAB, 79-59.

Owls drops to 10-18 (6-11) & now tied for 12th in CUSA with USM. Both FAU & USM have 1 game left to play

And I don't think there will be any improvement this Saturday at MTSU.
