Finebaum continues verbal assault on Lane Kiffin, says Kalen DeBoer made him look like fool

ESPN analyst Paul Finebaum continued his verbal assault on LSU coach Lane Kiffin during his appearance on ESPN's "First Take" on Monday. Finebaum criticized DeBoer, LSU's head coach, for making Kiffin look like an "absolute fool," noting that Kiffin had promised to bring a national championship to LSU. Finebaum pointed out Kiffin's abysmal record against Alabama, which stood at 0-6, including prior stints at Ole Miss and Tennessee.

The analyst highlighted Kiffin's struggles on Saturday, when LSU lost 31-13 to Alabama, attributing the loss to Kiffin's inability to beat Alabama. Kiffin's team failed to convert four crucial fourth downs and missed a field goal, further cementing the defeat. Finebaum, once again, criticized Kiffin for bringing in Kevin Costner for Tiger Walk, suggesting the actor looked foolish.

The analyst also noted Kiffin's habit of making "big decisions" that seemed to leave the team vulnerable. Finebaum had previously stated that he believed Kiffin could turn things around at some point and win a national championship, but noted that there was nothing impressive about Kiffin's performance in the recent game.
