I'll say this, I don't know if the crap with the headsets was just an accident, but to come out and make comments like this is just typical of this guy.
Somehow, my level of disgust for the team in Orange gets worse each year that passes. I found a new level of hate for this team and coach.

"It was just amazing," Kiffin said. "Our kickoff team goes out, everything's working in pregame and about 10 seconds before the opening kick our headsets just happen to go off -- in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Amazing deal. Just like the penalties today. ... Everything was great. We tested everything, came out right before kickoff and all of sudden they don't work. I've seen that before and heard of it before. They have happened to come back at the end of the first series. Then all of a sudden they worked, after our defense wasn't able to get the personnel from upstairs for the whole first series. They happened to come back. It would be just great timing so Coach Saban and their defense would be able to have their headsets."
And about the penalties ... Tennessee was flagged eight times for 68 yards, and Alabama logged one penalty for 10 yards.
"Interesting game that way," Kiffin said. "We're the No. 2 team in the country in least penalties out of 120 teams and come down here and have eight enforced penalties and a couple declined, and they have one. We obviously have to do a better job at that when we go on the road in Tuscalooosa."
