Lane Kiffin has been known for stirring the pot in his rivalry with LSU's Pete Golding. It was expected that this week would bring more of the same, especially after Ole Miss signed highly touted sack leader Princewill Umanmielen, who will be donning Purple and Gold at Death Valley next season.
Fans of both sides have been trading insults and boasts on social media for months now, with the rivalry between LSU and Ole Miss reaching boiling point. While many fans were ecstatic about Umanmielen's arrival, others took a shot at the Rebels' fanbase, prompting one individual to try and stand up for them - none other than Kiffin himself.
On Wednesday, Kiffin called out an LSU fan who had been mocking his program, responding with just two words. The message was clear: we're not going down without a fight.
Kiffin's shift in tone is likely due to the fact that he's accomplished what many thought impossible - landing the best transfer window of any team in the nation. With Umanmielen on board and 11 four-star recruits, LSU's 2026 roster is set to be one of the most talented in history.
Meanwhile, Golding's Rebels program has secured an impressive eight four-stars and 18 three-stars through the transfer portal. While they may not have come out on top this time around, Ole Miss fans can take solace in knowing that Kiffin still sees value in his players.
The battle between these two programs shows no signs of slowing down, with both sides digging in for the long haul. As September 19th approaches - when LSU and Ole Miss finally face off on the gridiron - one thing is certain: the rivalry will only continue to grow more heated.

! He was always known for stirring up drama, but this time he's using it as fuel for his team! I mean, who wouldn't want to step up their game when you've got a roster full of top-notch recruits? And let's be real, LSU fans were low-key getting roasted on social media - Kiffin's just bringing the heat back 
. It's like he's saying, "Bring it on, we're not backing down!" This rivalry is about to get SO MUCH MORE interesting 
. So I'm reading about Lane Kiffin calling out an LSU fan for trash talkin' his program and I gotta say, that's pretty bold for a coach who's all about stirring the pot. But at the same time, it makes sense - he's got a solid roster comin' in and they're gonna be tough to beat. I'm not sure what's more impressive, Ole Miss or LSU right now... both teams are lookin' like they're gonna make some noise this season 
. It's like, he's always talking trash, but now that his team's actually pulling off some impressive transfers, I'm guessing he's trying to keep the pressure on Golding's program. Meanwhile, Ole Miss fans can't help but be hyped about Umanmielen joining their squad 
. The rivalry between these two teams is getting more intense by the day – it'll be interesting to see how they match up on the field next month 
.
. Ole Miss might not have won the transfer war, but they're still bringing that fire

He took down that LSU fan with just 2 words and honestly, it was kinda satisfying to see him call out someone who was trash-talking him. 
this rivalry between LSU & Ole Miss is getting out of hand!! 
Kiffin's all about stirring up drama, I love it. But for real though, both teams are looking fire 
.
what a game this season is shaping up to be! can't wait for September 19th to see these two teams go head-to-head 
and I love it! He's not afraid to speak up and defend his team, even when they're getting roasted online. Like, who does that? 
like seriously what's his game? he calls out an lsu fan with just two words, that's not even a fight, that's just... lol 
meanwhile ole miss fans get ready for some embarrassing losses.
. Can't wait to see what happens when these two programs face off!
