No. 11 Ole Miss fell to No. 9 Alabama 30–24 at home in Oxford on Saturday afternoon, with Rebels’ coach Lane Kiffin falling short once again to his former boss, Nick Saban.
The Rebels had their chances to win this game on Saturday, leading in the second half and entering the fourth quarter tied. However, two fourth quarter field goals by Crimson Tide kicker Will Reichard proved to be enough to push Alabama over the top on the road.
A visibly frustrated Kiffin lamented the missed opportunity to beat Alabama at home on Saturday and expressed his thoughts vividly in the postgame press conference.
