Florida Atlantic’s spring game on Saturday will include a modified scoring system and an offense vs. defense format, coach Lane Kiffin announced Thursday morning.
The exact scoring format was not revealed, but Kiffin said the defense would earn points for things like three-and-outs, stops and turnovers. Kiffin said the format was chosen because of FAU’s depleted depth due to injuries.
“It’s something we’ve done before, one year when our numbers were really low at USC because the probation,” Kiffin said. “It’ll still be competitive that way, but it’ll be offense vs. defense.”
The game starts at 4 p.
