About me: FAU Owl Football started only eight short years ago. In that time coach Howard Schnellenberger has taken this team from a I-AA team to I-A football in the SunBelt conference. Along the way the Owls posted an 11-3 season, beat two major I-A teams on the road (while still in I-AA) and have achieved a milestone in college football by making it to and winning its first bowl game quicker than any other college startup program.
I am no fair weather fan..... but after that performance last night, it reminded me othe days when my high school palyed at Lockhart.
Rusty whats going on with you? Time to get the presciption fixed... Hard to belive you were quarterback of the week last year....Who stole the real Rusty?
Sincerely,
Dissapointed
Great turn out by the student body though! Hopefully they will return each and every game with the promise of better performances!
WTF?! I love you Owls but, last night was UNACCEPTABLE! Rusty's throws were ridiculous and Bonner couldn't catch the ball when it landed in his bloody hands! Last night's punting was an absolute embarrassment and don't EVEN get me started on the idiotic play calling! I'm completely GOBSMACKED!
GREAT GAME ON SATURDAY!!! BTW, those two girls that ran through our halftime show in the middle of our performance SUCK!!! Alot of people are pisssed and I am pretty sure Brogan wasn't pleased, along with our Band Director.

The football team will be on hand, and fans will be able to relive the highlights of FAU's phenomenal season and its remarkable accomplishments.
The event is free and open to the public. All fans in attendance will receive a commemorative New Orleans Bowl ticket autographed by Head Football Coach Howard Schnellenberger.
