vs. Troy State Trojans
When: Saturday, Nov. 11, 4 p.m.
Where: Lockhart Stadium in Ft. Lauderdale, FL (Capacity: 20,450)
FAU 35, Troy 14
Prediction: FAU led Troy 14-10 last year at halftime in Troy, Alabama. The Trojans amassed 18 unanswered points and won 28-14 in the second half. Expect the Owls to bounce back this year with a win at home.
Why these two teams are playing: Sun Belt game Watch Out: Wide Receiver Smokey Hampton burned the Owls last year in the second half. He is the bright spot on an otherwise untalented Troy team. Coach Larry Blakeney is one of the Sun Belt’s best and has won119 games at Troy with only 60 losses. He shouldn’t be able to add many wins with this team. Look for the Owls to run all over the depleted Trojans.
