RECAP | BOX SCORE

MIAMI (AP) _ Jared Allen's two touchdown passes led Florida Atlantic University to a 31-9 win over Marist College Saturday, as the Owls earned their first home victory in team history.

Florida Atlantic (2-1) gained 421 yards on offense, while the Owls' defense kept the Marist (0-2) from scoring a touchdown.

Thomas Parker and Doug Parker caught touchdown passes from Allen. Garrett Jahn also threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to Frank Conrad. Justin Thomas scored on a 9-yard run and Andy Rosas kicked a field goal and four extra points.

Brett Biggs accounted for all of Marist's points, kicking field goals of 41, 37 and 40 yards in the first half.

Allen and Jahn, both freshmen, combined to complete 12 of 24 passes for 227 yards and three touchdowns. They weren't sacked and didn't throw any interceptions.

The first-year Division I-AA Owls upset Bethune-Cookman on the road Sept. 8. Last week's game against James Madison was canceled due to the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington.

Florida Atlantic's kick returner Anthony Jackson returned three kicks for 168 yards and put the Owls in great field position every time he touched the ball. He also had 63 yards rushing as did Doug Parker.

Chris Price led Marist with 14 carries for 86 yards, and Alfredo Riullano added 61 yards on 16 carries.
