HOUSTON -- Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin says a Texas Tech player spit on one of his players and possibly used a racial slur Wednesday night in the TaxAct Texas Bowl.

A scrum between the teams came after Ole Miss' Dayton Wade fumbled early in the fourth quarter and Texas Tech recovered. There was pushing and shoving between players, and Ole Miss wide receiver Jordan Watkins was given a personal foul penalty.

After the game, which Ole Miss lost 42-25, Kiffin said the penalty should have been on Texas Tech's Dimitri Moore, who is No.
