Do you think Lane knows that TN & Florida are in the same SEC Eastern Division and the Vols will have to play them again next year .... and the year after that .... and the year after that ..... ?????

Bigdawg and anonymous, get a clue. UT plays Bama every year. They've only been doing that for the past 100+ years so I can see how you might not know that.

Lane should get Nike, Addidas or Reebok to pay to put their logo on his throat.

Someone explain how that's putting his foot in his mouth or him trying to stel the spotlight. He's asked a question and gives an answer that's complimentary of both teams and you guys fault him.

Anon 12:21: I'll give it a try.

On several occasions this year, Lane Kiffin has displayed bouts of borderline coherence. Meaning, there were several thousand ways he could have answered that question without thumbnailing the retina of Urban Meyer.

Kid Orange intends to make the Florida coach his personal pinata. We'll see how that works out in the years ahead.

So by saying in his opinion Saban is a better coach than Meyer he's taking a shot at Meyer? Why is that such out of the realm of possibilities? If Meyer and gator nation are that sensitive, they need to grow up and get over themselves.

And I admit this shouldn't be a surprise since this is identical to the reaction when (assumed initially to be Kiffin)didn't name Tebow to the preseason SEC team. What a bunch of prima donnas.
