BOCA RATON — If athletic director Brian White gets his way, Florida Atlantic could soon be welcoming a Power Five program to FAU Stadium.

When outlining his ideal future football schedule, White said he'd welcome the possibility of having a home-and-home with a Power Five team.

"You see it even in our league at other schools currently that have home-and-home with Power Fives, so it's definitely something we'd be very open to," White said.

Although FAU has played at least one Power Five team every year since 2005, only three have officially been the road team. Oklahoma State and Minnesota faced FAU at then-Dolphin Stadium in 2005 and 2007, respectively, in what were officially counted as neutral-site games.

FAU had a three-game contract with Oklahoma State and a true home-and-home with Minnesota. FAU's win over Minnesota remains their lone victory over a Power Five football program.

Miami's 44-20 win over FAU in September 2015 is the only time a Power Five has played the Owls at FAU Stadium. No other game in the stadium's eight-year history has drawn a larger crowd than the 30,321 fans in attendance that night.

FAU had previously played at Miami in 2013 and finished the two-for-one contract in 2016. The Owls lost all three games.

White's goal is to find matchups that make sense from an on-field and financial standpoint. If a team with an open spot on its schedule stands out to him and FAU football coach Lane Kiffin, regardless of its conference, they'll begin exploring the possibility of a game.

"You figure out years down the road what's open, you meet with your coach and figure out where do we feel like we can have a decent matchup and then also, what are they willing to pay," White explained.

FAU begins the 2019 season with a road game at Ohio State on Aug. 31 and a home matchup with UCF seven days later. The Owls then travel to Indiana to play Ball State before closing their non-conference slate with a home game against FCS Wagner.

Some Group of Five teams — including UCF and athletic director Danny White, Brian's older brother — have openly called for Power Five teams to play them in home-and-home games. Danny White rejected a proposed three-game slate with Florida that would have seen the Gators host two games.

Brian said he's kept a "good eye" on how UCF is handling its out-of-conference scheduling, but added, "it's also within the perspective of where we are and what every other school like us is doing and what makes sense for our program."

FAU's non-conference schedule for the next three years is full. The Owls are only scheduled to play at Ohio and USF in 2022, beginning a home-and-home with the Bobcats while ending one with the Bulls. USF comes to FAU on Sept. 26, 2020.

FAU has upcoming home-and-homes with Georgia Southern (2020-21), Central Michigan (2021, 2024), and the Ohio series. FAU's road game against Ball State on Sept. 14 finishes a home-and-home, which began in 2016. The Owls play at Air Force in 2021 to conclude the series they started last season.

White previously told The Post he'd be open to more games with in-state foes UCF and USF.

"Scheduling is something you do years in advance and you may get a call tomorrow with an opportunity that popped up that changes what you were thinking years in advance," White said. "It's an ever-evolving, daily changing thing."

White said the Owls will continue to play "buy games" on the road against Power Five teams. The Owls will receive $1.4 million for playing Ohio State in August, an increase over the $1.2 million earned from playing at Wisconsin and Oklahoma, respectively, the past two seasons.

FAU does not have a scheduled "buy game" in either 2021 or 2022. White hinted the school might take a different approach at which road games are scheduled.

"You'd love to have one where your fans can travel, but it's also good to be in places that have a little bit of history," White said. "I think that's cool for our student-athletes so there's so many factors involved."
