Lane Kiffin starts celebrating Amari Cooper touchdown before it happens (Video)

The verdict is in: Lane Kiffin is much better as an offensive coordinator than head coach.

Kiffin called a great second half during Alabama’s Iron Bowl win over Auburn Saturday. His play calls helped the Crimson Tide score five touchdowns in the half. And how well does he know his offense and reads? Check out this great video of him celebrating Blake Sims’ 75-yard touchdown pass to Amari Cooper in the third quarter well before it happens.

Kiffin knew Cooper was the primary option on the play. When he saw that Auburn failed to jam the talented receiver at the line of scrimmage, he knew Cooper was gone. Luckily Sims did too and hit his playmaker with a great pass.

Cooper had 13 catches for 224 yards and three touchdowns in the game. And he helped Kiffin earn a ton of respect.
