Lane Kiffin Criticizes SEC Officiating on Twitter After Controversial Call in Loss to Auburn

The Ole Miss head coach criticized SEC officials via Twitter over a controversial call following the 35-28 loss to Auburn.

Lane Kiffin took to Twitter following Ole Miss’s loss to Auburn on Saturday night to criticize SEC officials over a controversial call that led to a Tiger touchdown. 

The Rebels led 28-27 with 5:43 left in the game when a kickoff appeared to bounce off of Auburn running back Shaun Shivers’s finger before going into the end zone. The head referee Marc Curles blew his whistle, calling a touchback. 

Auburn ended up punting before regaining possession later, scoring on a 58-yard touchdown reception by Seth Williams with 1:11 left. The Rebels lost 35-38, falling 1-4 and losing their third straight game. Kiffin said that the play was briefly reviewed, but the game was not paused for a full review.

Kiffin later retweeted a clip from the game posted by an Ole Miss fan, which
