Can Florida Atlantic Outshine Wichita State at FAU Arena?

As the Florida Atlantic Owls prepare to host the Wichita State Shockers at FAU Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can turn around a recent slump. The Owls have been struggling with consistency, as evidenced by their last few games. In their most recent matchup against San Diego State Aztecs, they suffered a significant loss with a final score of 48-75. Their shooting was lackluster, hitting only 35 percent from the field and 26 percent from beyond the arc.

Despite this setback, there were some positive takeaways for the Owls in previous games. They managed to secure a narrow victory over Howard Bison by one point (45-46), showcasing their ability to grind out wins even when offensive production is low. However, it's worth noting that during this game, they shot just 28 percent from the field and an improved but still below-average 38 percent from three-point range.

The Owls' performance against UCF Knights was more encouraging as they eked out another close win (59-58). Their three-point shooting was impressive at 50 percent accuracy; however, turnovers continue to be an issue with them giving up possession 22 times.

Looking ahead to their encounter with Wichita State Shockers on February 10th at FAU Arena in Boca Raton, FL – home-court advantage could play a crucial role for Florida Atlantic. The team will need to focus on reducing turnovers and improving shot selection if they want to capitalize on playing in front of their home crowd.

Defensively, limiting points off turnovers will be critical for success against Wichita State. Fans can expect an intense battle where every possession counts and hope that FAU's defense can stifle any momentum from the visiting team.

The upcoming game is scheduled for February 10th at 7:00 PM local time and fans not able to attend can catch all the action live from wherever they are.
