Florida Atlantic scored on just 2 of 5 red zone opportunities in Saturday's 27-21 loss to Marshall, a stark contrast from its previous success. The Owls entered the game a perfect 12 for 12 in the red zone, including 10 touchdowns.
On Saturday, FAU fumbled away a red-zone possession on Gregory "Buddy" Howell's second-quarter fumble and squandered two more when it failed to convert on fourth down. One fourth-down chance was a dropped pass by Kalib Woods in the game's waning minutes. The other was a curious third-quarter toss to Kerrith Whyte from the 20-yard line.
