Florida Atlantic welcomes the University of Texas El-Paso this weekend, hoping to build on the momentum following its 42-25 win over Rice University last week.

The Owls (2-7, 1-4 Conference USA) snapped a seven-game losing streak with the win, their second streak of this length in the last three years.

FAU recorded 657 total yards in the victory, the most in program history.
