“LSU Is Going To Want A Refund”: Skip Bayless Takes Shot at Lane Kiffin After Alabama Trounces Tigers To Trim CFP Chances

Skip Bayless made a scathing comment about LSU head coach Lane Kiffin following the Tigers' 13-31 loss to Alabama, suggesting the athletic department should demand a refund for Kiffin's $91-million, seven-year contract. Despite Sam Leavitt throwing for 380 yards and Jackson Harris completing 166 yards, LSU struggled with key plays and ultimately scored only on a five-yard touchdown run.

Alabama's Keelon Russell recorded a triple-double with three passing touchdowns, while Ryan Coleman-Williams added a rushing touchdown. Kiffin acknowledged his disappointment on Saturday, stating that the team's struggles on fourth downs led to an overall ugly finish. Former Ohio State running back Beanie Wells also criticized Kiffin's coaching decisions, arguing that the players did not live up to expectations after LSU's high-profile signing spree. LSU's next matchup is a home game against Texas a week later.
