Brian Kelly hilariously trolled Lane Kiffin about Coca-Cola comments

Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin may be in hot water with a sponsor after comments he made during a press conference earlier this week.

“Does anybody drink Coke?” Kiffin asked reporters at the press conference. “130 percent of your sugar for the entire day is in this one bottle.”

Kiffin added that it had been a “long time” since he had indulged in a Coke.

While Kiffin may be right about the health consequences, it likely wasn’t music to the ears of The Coca-Cola Company as a sponsor. At his press conference on Tuesday, LSU coach Brian Kelly seemingly took a shot at Kiffin, trolling him as he gave what sounded like an ad read for Smartater.

“Just a shout out to our sponsor, Coke,” Kelly said. “Smartwater, great Coke product. Minerals, vitamins, it’s just great for you. It’s refreshing, healthy. Coke provides you all the products that you need.”

It’s not the first time one of the two coaches has taken a thinly veiled shot at the other, and after splitting their first two matchups against each other in the SEC, they’ll face off this fall in Baton Rouge for the rubber match in a game that could have playoff implications.
