FAU Week 6 Game Notes
Five Things to Know about FAU Football This Week
1. Only Duo in the Country - When junior running back Devin Singletary and senior linebackeer Azeez Al-Shaair were named Conference Preseason Players of the Year, they became the only same-school duo in the country to garner their respective conference preseason honors.
2. Make it Nine - The Florida Atlantic Owls are on a nine-game home win streak. FAU will return home this Saturday for the Conference USA home opener scheduled for 5 p.m. against Old Dominion.
3. Keep that Engine Running - Singletary scored on a seven-yard touchdown run at 10:05 at Middle Tennessee to extend his consecutive games with a touchdown to 18. He now holds Conference USA's record. Speaking of holding C-USA records, with 1:21 remaining in the first quarter of the MT contest, Singletary scored to make him C-USA's all-time career rushing touchdown leader and FAU's all-time scoring leader
4. In the Record Books - Singletary has moved up to second on FAU's career rushing yards leaderboard. He is 130 shy of the top spot held by Alfred Morris (2007-11). His 54 touchdowns responsible for ties for No. 2. He is the only non-quarterback on the list.
5. Man of CLASS - Al-Shaair is one of 30 nationally selected as a candidate for the Senior CLASS Award. Thirty NCAA® Football Bowl Subdivision student-athletes who excel both on and off the field were selected today as candidates for the 2018 Senior CLASS Award® in collegiate football. To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I FBS senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence: community, classroom, character and competition. An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School®, the Senior CLASS Award focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.
