Lane Kiffin trolled over ‘popcorn’ interview after Ole Miss loss
Lane Kiffin was trolled on social media in response to his subtle confidence ahead of Saturday’s game at Alabama.
Kiffin’s Ole Miss Rebels lost 42-21 at Bama and make a bit of a second half comeback after falling behind 28-0 at halftime.
Prior to the game, Kiffin was interviewed by CBS and told fans to “get your popcorn ready.” The implication was that his team was getting ready to put on a show.

Unfortunately, they fizzled out pretty quickly and got dominated in the first half. After the game, fans had a fun time with the “popcorn” quote on Twitter. They had all sorts of jokes.

Hey, Kiffin promised fans a show, but was never specific. Maybe he was talking about what Alabama was going to do in the game?
