FAU Falls To La.-Lafayette In Season Finale

LAFAYETTE, La. (AP) — Terrance Broadway posted 291 all-purpose yards and Alonzo Harris ran for three touchdowns to help Louisiana-Lafayette hold off Florida Atlantic 35-21 Saturday in the season finale for both clubs.

Broadway threw for 168 yards and ran for 123 of Louisiana-Lafayette's 284 rushing yards as the Ragin' Cajuns (8-4, 6-2 Sun Belt Conference) won their third-straight game.

Louisiana-Lafayette broke open a 14-all tie with a 10-play drive, which was capped by Broadway's 15-yard touchdown pass to James Butler. The Ragin' Cajuns extended their lead to 28-14 in the third quarter behind a 2-yarder from Harris.

FAU (3-9, 2-6) closed the gap to 28-21 in the fourth quarter but Harris' second 2-yard score of the day sealed the win for Louisiana-Lafayette.

Graham Wilbert completed 25 of 38 passes for 379 yards and two touchdowns for FAU but also tossed two interceptions. William Dukes hauled in nine catches for 204 yards for FAU.
