BOCA RATON, Fla. -- Lane Kiffin's debut at Florida Atlantic lasted nearly six hours, featured three lightning delays and ended with almost no one left in the stands.
It was unforgettable.
It was also unsuccessful.
Zach Abey ran for 235 yards and two touchdowns, and Navy spoiled the start of Kiffin's era at FAU by topping the Owls 42-19 in a bizarre game that ended at 1:47 a.m. Saturday. It took more than three hours to play the fourth quarter with the delays -- and when the game ended, even the cheerleaders were long gone and cleaning crews were already at work inside the stadium.
