It hit Lane Kiffin this week as Florida Atlantic prepares to host Old Dominion in another Conference USA game and turn the page after dropping a crushing conference opener at Middle Tennessee State.

It’s doubly tough on FAU because Middle Tennessee is in the East division of C-USA with the Owls, meaning for them to get the conference championship game berth over the Blue Raiders, they’ll likely have to win out while MTSU loses two conference games.
