Lane Kiffin has interesting response to question about nation's top team being tough to watch
Alabama has successfully moved on from Lane Kiffin. The FAU head coach, on the other hand, just can’t seem to let go of the Crimson Tide and Nick Saban.
If you missed Virginia’s historic loss in the opening round of the 2018 NCAA Tournament Friday night to UMBC, your eyes were saved from witnessing the dreadful offensive performance from the Cavaliers. Virginia successfully made four of its 22 three-point attempts in the game (18.2 percent), went to the free throw line only eight times and shot 41.1 percent for the game.
It was an ugly performance from Virginia and the first time in the history of the NCAA Tournament in which a #1 seed fell to a #16 seed.
During the game, Clay Travis challenged anyone to come up with an offense that was as boring to watch from one of the top teams in sports.
I rescind my criticism of Auburn-Charleston. UVa-UMBC is brutal. Can y’all remember the top team in a sport that was this boring to watch?

It took awhile for Lane Kiffin to react but when he did, it’s pretty clear he was jokingly poking fun at Alabama.
Hmmmm ? https://t.co/Q5WdHJ3wWh

Does Kiffin have a point or not, considering Alabama just won the national championship in dramatic fashion, on offense no less, and scored 40 or more points seven times last season?
