FAU pounded Western Kentucky 34-15 in its homecoming game, outscoring the Hilltoppers 24-6 in the second half to make it happen.

After storming out of the gates to score a touchdown on its first possession, the Owls offense looked sluggish for the rest of the opening half.

The FAU defense was lights out in the first half, however, holding Western Kentucky quarterback Steven Duncan to only 58 yards passing through two quarters.

FAU coach Lane Kiffin used a dual-quarterback system tonight, giving De’Andre Johnson some playing time after his big game against FIU last week.
