BOCA RATON, Fla. – Over 2,000 miles and two times zone separate Florida Atlantic University football and Air Force. The Owls will take to the skies to face the Falcons for an 8 p.m. Eastern kickoff on Saturday night, in just the second matchup ever between the two programs.
Though the Owls are on the road, they remain one of the hottest home squads in the country after last Saturday's 45-14 win over Fordham. Only eight FBS programs have a longer home winning streak, and of those, only four can extend that stretch this weekend:
