FIU wraps up its 15th football season against Old Dominion in Norfolk, Virginia on Saturday afternoon. The Panthers (4-7, 4-3 Conference USA) look to add to their program-best in Conference USA wins if they can defeat the Monarchs. ODU (8-3, 6-1 C-USA) is playing for much more, specifically a possible spot in the conference championship game. If ODU beats FIU and Marshall upsets Western Kentucky, then ODU would face Louisiana Tech for the C-USA championship the following Saturday.
FIU encounters an ODU team that has made an impressive turnaround from last season when the Monarchs were 5-7 overall and 3-5 in the conference.
