Lane Kiffin Shows Support for Tennessee Baseball During Super Regional
Ole Miss football coach Lane Kiffin showed some unexpected support for his former team this weekend. He publicly revealed that he was rooting for Tennessee baseball in their NCAA Super Regional matchup against Arkansas.
Kiffin used social media, asking his followers: *“Who are you pulling for in the Tennessee/Arkansas series?”* . He made it clear he was hoping for a Tennessee win.

Why it matters:
It shows Kiffin’s loyalty and connection to Tennessee, even as he leads Ole Miss football.
His public support drew attention and sparked chatter among fans of both programs.
It highlights how college coaches often stay connected to other sports and former schools.
In short, Lane Kiffin’s support wasn’t just casual. His shout-out to Tennessee baseball during the Super Regional was a visible nod to his past—showing respect for his roots while he builds a future at Ole Miss.
