Lane Kiffin gave his former boss and Alabama head coach Nick Saban a scare in Ole Miss’s 63-48 loss to the No. 2 Crimson Tide on Saturday.
So much of a scare, in fact, that Saban and players said they felt maybe Kiffin knew what was coming next from the Alabama defense before the next play was ran. Following the game, Saban alluded to the possible fact that the Rebels were stealing their signals, or at the very least recognized them, allowing the Rebel offense to put up video-game stats against the Tide.
Kiffin dismissed that claim during his regular Monday press conference, noting his offense moves too fast to rely on getting the opposing defense’s signals figured our before the next snap.
