BOCA RATON, Fla. -- Lane Kiffin's first season at Florida Atlantic brought the school's first Conference USA championship, as the Owls defeated North Texas 41-17 for the league title on Saturday.
Devin Singletary had 26 carries for 164 yards and three touchdowns for the Owls, who extended their unbeaten streak to nine games and were undefeated against C-USA opponents this season. Jason Driskel completed 15 of 27 passes for 269 yards and a touchdown for FAU, and Kalib Woods had a school-record 208 receiving yards.
FAU (10-3) had 633 yards of offense, and Kiffin's last play call of the day was one where he ordered his brother -- defensive coordinator Chris Kiffin -- to get a water bucket dumped on him.
