BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (September 8, 2017) – With the arrival of Hurricane Irma looming and potentially making landfall in South Florida, and with the FIU football team's game being moved from its home field, Riccardo Silva Stadium, to Birmingham, Alabama, the Panthers finally had the opportunity to return to a bit of normalcy, albeit for just a few hours. FIU returned to the gridiron on Friday, for what should have been its home-opener on Saturday, and handed upset-minded Alcorn State University a hard-fought 17-10 loss at historic Legion Field. The win improves the Panthers to 1-1 on the year, while the Braves level at 1-1.
