The Rebels' head coach talked about his thoughts on CFP rankings, what's important to coaches and, of course, this week's game against Florida.

Kiffin has since called the sanctions “as close to the death penalty” as you can get. Despite the restrictions, USC went 8-5 in 2010 and improved to 10-2 in 2011. The Trojans slipped to 7-6 in 2012. In 2013, USC started 3-1 but fell 43-22 on the road to Arizona State in Week 5. The 43 points were the most the Sun Devils had ever scored against USC.

Florida just happens to be one of the few programs that checks all of those boxes. The Swamp seats just shy of 89,000 fans, the Gators have three national championships and three Heisman Trophy winners, and Florida is one of the most talent-rich football states in the country.

Lane Kiffin's Ole Miss recorded an important 34-24 win over Florida on Saturday. After the game, Kiffin celebrated on the field with his son, Knox, and a woman whom he wrongly thought was his reconciled wife, Layla.

Ole Miss's head coach was asked a lot of questions about his coaching future, but not many answers were provided.

Mulkey referred to The Advocate 's report that the Ole Miss coach flew into Baton Rouge on Monday and toured the city during the LSU football team's search for its next head coach. Mulkey's mention of Kiffin being in Gainesville on Sunday was also mentioned in The Advocate 's report.

Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin went into detail about the joy of watching his son Knox play as a high school quarterback.
