Lane Kiffin trolls USC with tweet after Alabama blowout
Lane Kiffin took his revenge on Saturday as the Alabama Crimson Tide destroyed the USC Trojans 52-6. After the game was over, he couldn't refrain from twisting the dagger a little bit on Twitter.
In case you forgot, Kiffin used to be the head football coach at the University of Southern California until he was fired on the LAX tarmac in 2013. He later joined Alabama as the team's offensive coordinator.
While Kiffin might be a brilliant offensive mind, Alabama head coach Nick Saban basically treats him like a child -- he even joked once that Saban runs his Twitter account so he wouldn't get himself in trouble.

His subsequent tweet, in case you were wondering, was a link to story about a pro golfer engraving "Harambe" on his putter. Never change, Lane Kiffin, never change.
