Ole Miss Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin found some time for his favorite activity on Tuesday morning — tweeting about the Tennessee Vols.
It seems like there's rarely a week that goes by that Kiffin, who was the head coach at Tennessee in 2009, doesn't send at least one tweet that references the Vols.
This time around, Vols fans probably won't be laughing.
On Tuesday, Kiffin tagged Tennessee Football's official Twitter account in a tweet along with a laughing emoji.
Kiffin quote tweeted a tweet from a parody account that poked fun at country music superstar (and massive Tennessee fan) Morgan Wallen, who canceled a concert in Oxford last month due to voice issues. The tweet jokingly suggested that Wallen lost his voice due to being at Ole Miss where they "fake injuries constantly".
This is a reference to the 2021 matchup between Ole Miss and Tennessee where Rebels players were seemingly going down after every play. Many fans and analysts felt like the injuries weren't legit. Whether or not they were, we'll likely never know. What we do know, however, is that the injuries slowed down Tennessee's tempo and gave the Rebels an advantage. If not for all of the injuries, perhaps the Vols win that matchup (Ole Miss ended up winning 31-26).
It definitely feels like Kiffin is "bragging" about getting away with some questionable injuries against the Vols in 2021. And I'm sure Tennessee fans won't be laughing along with the former UT head coach.
