Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake was surprised to hear coach Lane Kiffin's Florida Atlantic Owls beat Akron 50-3 in the Boca Raton Bowl.

"They only scored 50?" Drake said with a laugh. "Wow, that's impressive. I heard he signed a 10-year contract, too? Leave it to Lane to sign a 10-year contract. That's pretty cool."

Kiffin was Alabama's offensive coordinator when Drake played there. Kiffin finished his first season at FAU on a 10-game winning streak and agreed to a 10-year extension.

"He's a real down-to-earth, just-want-to-enjoy-the-moment type of guy. That's what I love about him," Drake said. "I wish him much more success at FAU. Hopefully he'll invite me to more games."
