The Owls and 49ers meet for the second time in history.
After a tough, heartbreaking loss to Florida International University last Saturday, the Owls haven’t exactly begun the season as fans hoped they would.
Florida Atlantic — 1-4, 0-1 Conference USA — fell to the previously winless Panthers with a 33-31 loss and had to watch its fiercest rival raise the Shula Trophy, which the Owls claimed a year earlier.
However, the Owls must get past that and get ready for their next opponent, a team they defeated 17-7 in 2015 after losing their first three games of the season: Charlotte.
