College football is as interesting to watch as Division 1 NFL. However, sometimes the situation can get out of hand as young individuals lose their calm and commit to disorderly conduct amidst the game. The same happened during the matchup between the Tennessee Volunteers and Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday.
However, the outrage was not regarding the trash talk among the players. It was regarding Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin. Kiffin adorns his resume as the former head coach of Tennessee Volunteers for 12 seasons.
