The best reason to like Florida Atlantic this season is Lane Kiffin taking over as head coach. He has a lot of experienced offensive weapons to work with. The defense was its worst ever last year, but Chris Kiffin takes over the unit and the club has had lots of time to practice against stopping Navy's triple option. Expect a fun FAU team this year and it might get the outright win at home against Navy.
A big steam on Florida Atlantic in coach Lane Kiffin's debut has forced this spread under double figures. But my numbers say Navy wins by 20, and the Midshipmen are covering this spread in about two-thirds of simulations. FAU should be able to score but its defense stands no chance against Navy's powerful triple option. Lay those points.
Navy has the luxury of a semi-experienced QB in junior Zach Abey. That’ll make the offense run smoothly once again. FAU has a new head coach in Lane Kiffin, and he’ll jumpstart that offense in Boca Raton, Fla. But will the defense be able to contain the option? I don’t think so. Lay the points.
