Florida Atlantic University’s football team travels to Tulsa this Saturday for another American Conference game. The Owls, now 6-3 overall, earned bowl eligibility last week with a win over UTSA, the top team in the conference.
Tulsa enters the game at 5-4, including a win over Oklahoma State. The Golden Hurricane rank second in the country in fewest missed tackles and fourth in turnover margin. A Tulsa win would make the team bowl eligible for the first time in four years.
FAU’s offense will lean on wide receiver Easton Messer, who was named one of seven finalists for the Paul Hornung Award, given to the most versatile player in college football. Messer is the only player in the nation this season with a passing, rushing, receiving and punt return touchdown.
