After a dominant victory in their contest two weeks ago, the Florida Atlantic Owls were humbled on Saturday. They took a hard 20-3 fall against the Georgia Southern Eagles. That's the fewest points Florida Atlantic has scored all year.
The Eagles can attribute much of their success to RB Logan Wright, who punched in one rushing touchdown. Another playmaker for Georgia Southern was WR Khaleb Hood, who returned a punt 49 yards to the end zone in the second quarter.
Georgia Southern's defense was a presence as well, as it collected two interceptions and two fumbles. The picks came courtesy of CB Derrick Canteen and CB Justin Birdsong.
Florida Atlantic's overall record fell to 5-2. Georgia Southern's win brought them up to 7-4.
