Fans who attended the September 27 game at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium between No. 4 LSU and No. 13 Ole Miss got more than what they bargained for. Instead of terrorizing QBs, Whit Weeks decided to terrorize his own stomach first. In between snaps, the Tigers LB threw up. On the field. Front of his facemask included. And yet, like a seasoned warrior, he kept playing. The internet, naturally, had a field day. Barstool Sports joked about whether he had attended any Kiffin family dinners, while others wondered what Landry Kiffin had slipped into his diet. And if you thought that was a one-off, October 11 reminded everyone otherwise. 

Whit Weeks made headlines again, this time captured on X barfing right after taking his position, captioned simply, “Whit Weeks 🤝 football guy.” Social media is noticing a recurring ritual for the LSU linebacker. “It’s not LSU gameday without Whit Weeks throwing up during the game. Weeks has continued to have a trend of him throwing up during games in recent weeks,” someone wrote on Threads. 

What makes this spectacle even juicier is that Knox Kiffin, 2028 QB and son of Ole Miss HC Lane Kiffin, is visiting LSU this weekend for his most high-profile stop yet. The 6-foot, 170-pound signal-caller from Oxford High has a growing list of offers and a pedigree that screams college football royalty. LSU hasn’t offered him yet, but with all eyes on Baton Rouge, this trip is about family drama colliding with football chaos.

Whit Weeks is an LSU LB dating Landry Kiffin, Knox’s older sister and Lane Kiffin’s daughter. Last season, he put on a highlight reel against the Rebels with 18 tackles in a game that almost single-handedly tanked Ole Miss’ College Football Playoff chances. This year, he hasn’t looked like the same dominant force, registering just 18 tackles over four games but he’s making headlines for another reason entirely. Social media hasn’t let him live down his unique gameday talent which is projectile vomiting. 

Kiffin family drama ft. Whit Weeks 

The Kiffin-Weeks saga is like a full-blown soap opera playing out on Saturdays. Lane Kiffin, ever the provocateur, couldn’t resist poking fun at his own daughter’s boyfriend ahead of the Ole Miss–LSU showdown. Posting “Take the over” on X, he set the stage for what turned into a high-scoring, nail-biting affair. Ole Miss pulled off the 24–19 upset, and Lane Kiffin immediately turned his attention to Whit Weeks. “I’m looking for Whit right now to see if we covered the over,” Lane joked postgame, cementing the playful family feud for fans and broadcasters alike.

Landry Kiffin, for her part, wasn’t about to sit on the sidelines. Traveling 335 miles just to surprise Whit Weeks, she made it clear she could cheer for LSU while keeping an eye on her boyfriend. Sporting a custom Whit Weeks-inspired outfit before swapping it for LSU gear at kickoff, she was the definition of a tactical gameday supporter. Even ESPN’s broadcast couldn’t ignore the drama. Sean McDonough pointed out that Whit Weeks’ younger sister wasn’t exactly thrilled to see Landry Kiffin cheering against her own brother. But here, family and football collided in real time, with Whit stuck in the middle of a storyline that’s part rivalry, part reality show, and all unmistakably entertaining. 

Through it all, though, Whit Weeks and Landry Kiffin’s relationship seems bulletproof, surviving gameday antics, viral barf clips, and a national audience watching every move.
