Whether it was backhanded or not, Oklahoma head coach Brent Venables took Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin’s signal-stealing accusations as a compliment.
The No. 13 Sooners will host No. 8 Ole Miss at 11 a.m. CT Saturday in Norman for a matchup between two coaches who are considered gurus on opposite sides of the ball. Although offensive-minded, Kiffin on Monday praised Venables’ elite defense, but one of the traits Kiffin mentioned was the Sooners’ ability to know the other team’s signals.
