Lol, I love the trash talk.
In all seriousness, this is probably Kiffin's best opportunity to beat the tide, and he knows it. Did everyone catch the egregious trolling he's been doing this week? I know that's his thing, but this week he really laid it on thick with two distinct shots at Saban and has doubled down on them. I don't think he goes that hard if he didn't think he had something up his sleeve.
And if anyone missed it, the first was a snarky comment suggesting Alabama had secretly demoted their DC which Saban rebuffed. The lede on that story might be a bit buried, as Kiffin also said "it ain't no secret, people in these buildings know each other, so we obviously got some information that way, too". If true, that's a bombshell (but in all likeliness, it's just some Kiffin trolling). The second was a tweet which goes into a whole Taylor Swift rabbit hole...
And the whole rowdy crowd in Tuscaloosa is overblown (yes, I am milking Texas's road win even if it turns out to be not as impressive as we all thought at the time).
