Lane Kiffin to appear on College GameDay ahead of conference championship games
Lane Kiffin will be interviewed on Saturday’s edition of College GameDay.
ESPN announced that news on Thursday afternoon, just a couple of days before the pregame show will originate in Atlanta ahead of the SEC Championship Game.
Kiffin will presumably be asked about his decision to depart Ole Miss for LSU despite having a Playoff-bound team in Oxford. The controversial moved has sparked a wide variety of reactions from the college football world since his departure on Sunday.
Ole Miss players and administrators have disputed some of what Lane Kiffin has already said about his exit. Kiffin claimed he didn’t know he wouldn’t be able to coach Ole Miss in the Playoff until Sunday morning — an assertion athletic director Keith Carter disputed this week. Kiffin also said Ole Miss players asked for him to be permitted to coach the team in the Playoffs — a claim multiple players have since refuted.
It’s not yet known what time Kiffin will be appearing on College GameDay on Saturday morning.
The 2025 SEC Championship Game between Alabama and Georgia is slated to begin at 4 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon.
