Ole Miss football coach Lane Kiffin had a postgame encounter with a Mississippi reporter following the Rebels’ 38-19 Egg Bowl win over Mississippi State on Friday, Nov. 28.
It appears the Ole Miss coach took issue with Garrett using a derogatory term on a podcast to describe Kiffin weighing his options on his coaching future. That has included entertaining offers from outside Ole Miss, most notably LSU.
Ole Miss picked up its 11th win of the season on Friday, the first time the Rebels have accomplished that feat in program history. The Rebels will now wait to learn whether they can make the SEC championship game next week or begin preparing immediately for a likely College Football Playoff berth.
