Overview
- Yahoo Sports reports Kiffin is considering attending Ole Miss–Georgia at the Caesars Superdome with Gov. Jeff Landry, and neither LSU nor the governor’s office disputed the possibility.
- Local officials are preparing potential security arrangements in case Kiffin and Landry arrive for the Sugar Bowl quarterfinal.
- Kiffin left Ole Miss to become LSU’s head coach on Nov. 30 after the Rebels secured a Playoff berth.
- Six assistants already under LSU contracts, including offensive coordinator Charlie Weis Jr., remain on Ole Miss’ staff through the Playoff in an arrangement Weis called “certainly weird.”
- Landry previously took a visible role in LSU’s coaching shake‑up, a backdrop that has fueled concern from observers about recruiting optics and possible tampering questions.
