NEW: Boise State head coach Spencer Danielson on facing 2-1 Western Michigan:
"They are an undefeated football team, period, end of story. You watch that game, they absolutely beat Michigan at Michigan. That's not hype. That's what happened."

Funny thing is, that standard hurts Lane Kiffin more than Pete Golding.
Kiffin’s 10-3 team in Year 2, 2021, had 32/44 (73%) of its two-deep inherited from Matt Luke .
Even in Year 3, 16/44 (36%) were still Luke guys.
Golding is in Year 1 and already 21/44 (48%) of his two-deep are newcomers added after he took over.
So “these are all Lane’s guys” just isn’t remotely accurate, and it’s not a very good argument to make if you want to give Lane credit for what he did early at Ole Miss.
Great news for Stephen A.
He avoided hurting his hands for all the high fiving and the risk of hugging others in the excitement.
After all, it was a danger zone in Oxford.
For all the talk about how "violent" Oxford, Mississippi, was going to be yesterday, the only person who threw anything was the head football coach of LSU, throwing a football at Ole Miss fans and striking one of them in the head.
I'm sure if the Ole Miss fans threw stuff at Kiffin, our school would take a hefty fine and the folks who threw items would be tracked down, arrested, and banned from future athletic events. I doubt coaches will be held to the same standard.

The war zone was only a football game. After a week of warnings about bulletproof vests and even the National Guard, Ole Miss and LSU played in front of 70,000-plus.
No catastrophe. No field storming. Just Ole Miss 32, LSU 24... and maybe a little karma.

Ole Miss fans didn’t rush the field when they beat LSU. Because they expected to win. That says a lot about where the program is in Oxford. Not storming the field when you win a huge game says more about your program than storming the field does.
Lane Kiffin:
- leaves a playoff team for LSU
- tries to burn Ole Miss to ground
- lies about countless events
- interviews with Vanity Fair
- tweets #FAFO to Ole Miss fans
..and then goes back to Oxford with a $50M+ roster and still can’t win
