Tennessee fans pelt field, hit Lane Kiffin after chaotic ending to Ole Miss win

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Lane Kiffin was ready for just about anything Saturday night in his first return to Neyland Stadium as a head coach.

But dodging an endless sea of bottles, both plastic and glass, along with an assortment of other projectiles, including a golf ball, in what was an ugly ending to Ole Miss' 31-26 victory over Tennessee wasn't on his play sheet.

"It's an emotional game and fans are emotional, but you never expect something like that, to see all that stuff come flying out of the stands," Kiffin told ESPN.
