Three wins stare at Florida Atlantic and coach Charlie Partridge. It is a familiar sight for the Owls, who finished 3-9 the first two seasons under Partridge, and a fate they can avoid entering the season's final two games.
A fourth win this year would be a welcome sign for a program that endured a seven-game losing streak earlier this season. It would quell the calls for Partridge's job even more than recent wins over Rice and UTEP have. It would give the Owls momentum — either real or imagined — heading into the offseason.
