The Panthers must win against WKU at home in the regular season finale Nov. 21 in order to have a chance to play in a bowl game. How much is on the line for FIU Football when they take on WKU in the season finale at FIU Stadium on Saturday afternoon? Everything. With five wins already under their belts, the Panthers need a victory against the heavily favored Hilltoppers to become bowl eligible for the first time since 2011. Kickoff for the game is set for 2:30 p.m. The Panthers have been stellar at home so far this season with a 4-0 record, outscoring opponents 180-69 in “The Cage.” But the Panthers (5-6, 3-4 Conference USA) have not faced any team as strong as WKU (8-2, 6-0 C-USA) at home this season.
