Ole Miss Made a Drastic Change Ahead of Lane Kiffin’s Return to Oxford
Ole Miss had to make a major change before LSU head coach Lane Kiffin's big return to face his former team.
At the commencement of the "College GameDay" broadcast in Oxford, Mississippi, Ole Miss Rebels supporters signaled their dissatisfaction with Lane Kiffin's presence. This return to face his former program, after parting ways with Ole Miss at the conclusion of last season, set the stage for an electric atmosphere. The tension reached its zenith when Kiffin made his appearance on the show.
Social media captured the intensity of the moment, with fans vocally expressing their disdain. During Kiffin's interview, chants of "F*** Lane Kiffin" reverberated throughout the venue, underscoring the crowd's vehement disapproval. Chris Marler, an insider, tweeted about the initial intensity of the chants, speculating if they would sustain their fervor before kickoff.
However, Marler soon observed the boos intensifying once again. The chaotic scene was described as remarkable, as the Ole Miss fans continued to drown Kiffin out with repeated chants of "A**hole! A**hole! A**hole!" Amid the fervor, the broadcast also turned its focus to current head coach Pete Golding, who was commended for his leadership in steering the football program following Kiffin's abrupt departure.
