Alright, let’s talk about Lane Kiffin and his interesting weekend on social media. The Ole Miss head coach had some thoughts about the College Football Playoff, and let’s just say he wasn’t exactly shy about sharing them.
Now, Kiffin is known for his outspoken personality and his love of trolling, but this time, he might have taken it a bit too far. He spent the weekend criticizing the playoff selection committee for the lack of competitiveness in the first-round games, even though his own team didn’t even make the playoffs!
Kiffin called out the blowouts between Notre Dame and Indiana, and Penn State and SMU, but he conveniently stayed silent when his SEC rival, Tennessee, got demolished by Ohio State. It seems like Kiffin was more interested in stirring the pot than making a valid point.
And let’s be real, Kiffin’s Ole Miss team didn’t exactly have a stellar season. They lost to a struggling Kentucky team, blew a big lead against LSU, and even fell to a Florida team that got blown out by Miami earlier in the year.
It’s easy to criticize from the sidelines, but Kiffin’s comments just came across as sour grapes. He’d be better off focusing on improving his own team instead of trying to tear down others.
At the end of the day, Kiffin’s social media antics just highlighted his own shortcomings as a coach. He’s got a lot of work to do if he wants to get Ole Miss back into the national conversation, and he’d be wise to let his actions on the field do the talking for him.
