Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels are in Knoxville on Saturday night for a big game against a resurgent Tennessee program.
Kiffin, of course, spent the 2009 season as Tennessee’s head coach before leaving after the season for USC.
Needless to say, he’s not the most popular guy on Rocky Top. As you can see below, he was greeted with a chorus of boos from fans on Saturday night:

Kiffin seems to relish playing the villain, though, so you know he has a smile on his face hearing the boos.
Now, we’ll have to see if he or Tennessee coach Josh Heupel gets the last laugh on Saturday night.
