🔼 Hot Start. Florida Atlantic put up a program-best 49 points in the first half and never slowed down, rolling Texas Southern 66-10 for the largest margin of victory in school history. The Owls scored on offense, defense, and special teams in the same game for the first time ever. Leonard Farrow took two kickoffs to the house before the offense even touched the field, tying the FBS single-game record, and Wilky Denaud scooped a fumble 31 yards for a score. Kelby Valsin hauled in three touchdowns and set a career high with 126 receiving yards for the second straight week. FAU is 4-1, its best start since 2020.

🔼 Podcast Debut. Director of Athletics Josh McCowan joins Frank Forte for the debut episode of the Paradise POD; tune in regularly for updates on all things FAU and submit your questions using #AskJosh or at FAUSports.com/AskJosh.
