This is only good for all of us.

This. Whatever it takes, get there. Sell your car, your house, your dog. You will remember those two hours for the rest of your life.

Your wife ?

Now, I see that UNT and UAB BOTH got jobbed. They would not have looked out of place at the tourney.

Love it Owls! My East bracket has been carrying me . The only game I’ve got wrong was FD’s first round upset. FAU v Kansas State in the Elite 8 sounds awesome

Congrats. This Rice Owls fan will be wearing my Owls gear at the Final Four and hoping for a chance to root for the Owls. One more game to go.

Nice win FAU! Thanks for taking out the trash in Tennessee. First Memphis. Now UT.

I'm absolutely loving this. Forget the brackets and inter-conference garbage babble, this is something I didn't foresee or even see happening.

This helps solidify something almost all of us knew on here, CUSA was a tough league this year, nice win Owls.

Congratulations FAU!

Hope Jackedup gives some good reasons for the next team to kick their ass. Seems to be working out fairly well for FAU.

To think Rutgers, not FAU, would have gone to the tourney if FAU had not won the CUSA tourney. I HATE the P6 bias. With the exception of Tennessee fans, the rest of the nation was rooting for FAU last night.

No. We would have been an at large even losing the cusa title game. UAB just would have been in too

This is a strange sensation. I hope FAU administration has a plan to capitalize on this once in a lifetime (but hopefully not) event.

The local yokel sports talk shows out of Nashville weren't giving "little FAU" a chance. Pretty much dismissed FAU. I'm sure they will be making excuses today, without giving the Owls any credit whatsoever.

The below posted from Tiger1983 on the AAC Board. Credit is never given to G5 schools, only blame to the P6 school when they lose.

"I thought FAU fans might enjoy a sample of reaction of Tennessee's media to the Vols defeat.

According to the Tennessean, FAU "wanted the game more" and labelled FAU a a "mid-major team that -- while undeniably feisty -- was smaller and less talented" while the Vols were not "locked in". No credit was given to FAU's coaching or skills of the FAU players. Typical. 03-lmfao

https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/...024932007/

The Daily Times (a Maryville paper) blamed UT's seniors, "internal issues" and "a final inept offensive performance." Naturally, nothing was mentioned about the Owl's defense. Typical. 03-lmfao

https://www.thedailytimes.com/sports/sen...62eac.html

Finally, the Knoxville Sentinel stated the Vols were "unprepared", inconsistent, injury riddled, outworked and labeled FAU "inferior". In other words, the defeat was all about UT's failure and nothing to do with FAU's brilliance. Typical. 03-lmfao

On the contrary, FAU gave the obknoxiouisville faithful some of their own medicine. FAU's defense was smothering, and frustrated them thar vawls. Reminded me of the tough UNT "D". The big ewetee goon sealed their fate when he got the technical, and resulting possession to the Owls.

Nothing sucks like a Big Orange.

MT beating FAU was an upset.

FAU beating ewetee was no upset. They are 34-3.
