Lane Kiffin says Paul Finebaum’s statement of Nick Saban’s run of excellence being over is ‘stupid’

He wants to beat Nick Saban and Alabama on Saturday, but Lane Kiffin refuses to disrespect Saban.

National media pundits, including Paul Finebaum, have come at Saban since the loss to LSU.

The statement, ‘the dynasty is dead,’ has resurfaced and some believe Saban’s run of excellence is over. Kiffin, who served under Saban as Alabama’s offensive coordinator from 2014 to 2016, is not taking the rat poison. He called Finebaum’s statement about Saban ‘stupid’ and honored his former boss by stating, ‘he is one of the best to ever do it.’

“They have lost two games by two plays,” Kiffin said about Alabama.
