The Ole Miss Rebels, a team that was on the cusp of making it to the playoffs, narrowly missed out after not being selected by the committee. The disappointment was palpable as head coach Lane Kiffin took to social media to express his feelings.
After witnessing Penn State's dominant performance in the first half against SMU, Kiffin couldn't contain his frustration. He posted on social media, 'Way to keep us on the edge of our seats Committee... Riveting.' This tweet reflected the team's disappointment in not being chosen for the playoffs.
Just a day before this incident, Kiffin had also commented on Notre Dame's victory over Indiana. He sarcastically remarked, 'Really exciting competitive game. Great job!!' These comments highlight the frustration felt by the Ole Miss Rebels and their supporters.
The playoff selection process is always a topic of debate and controversy in college football. Teams that narrowly miss out often feel aggrieved, and the Ole Miss Rebels are no exception. Despite their strong performance throughout the season, they were ultimately left out of the playoff picture.
As the college football season progresses, it will be interesting to see how the Ole Miss Rebels respond to this setback. Will they use this disappointment as motivation to perform even better next season? Only time will tell.
