    Somebody reported that Lane Kiffin said that Alabama had a coaching advantage! :twisted:

    He did Terry, but he's been saying that for several weeks. Florida has the best players in the country but Bama has the best coaching.

    I think he's trying to suck up to Saban. :)

    LK really cracks me up...

    He takes a shot at his 2 biggest rivals... suggesting Alabama doesn't have the best players and the big one... that Bama has better coaches (a shot at Urban's reportedly massive ego)..

    He really is a d*ck but he's fun to watch when you're a non-partisan.

    Also, he is learning to be more 'Spurrier' about his comments. Instead of coming out and dealing crass statements, he is tossing out double edged compliments with a bit of a wry smile..

    Beware SEC fans, he's learning...

    Hey Corey, the reason it works so well with this game is because I think tonight showed he was exactly right. The only possible argument is that Alabama does have just as good of players as Florida. The fact that Florida tossed up a goose egg after halftime shows that Alabama made all the right adjustments at half, IMO.

    Aquila,

    Im not saying he's right or wrong. I'm just saying he saw a golden opportunity to get 2 quality digs in and took it.. All under the thinly veiled guise of evaluating the competition.

    Both teams have great players, both teams have great coaches. Whoever first lobbed LK that softball deserves a Christmas Card in the next few weeks at least. I know he was asked on Gameday today, but he made that statement before hand.
