Spurrier blueprint: Kiffin says he has always admired Gamecocks’ coach
Lane Kiffin figuratively bit his tongue, and it seemed to put him in literal pain.
Surely the Tennessee coach will have somebody on the other sideline this weekend who can relate.
South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier might not use his sharp jabs or poke fun at SEC rivals nearly as often as he used to, but he’s still the original and made popular the vocal blueprint Kiffin has adopted.
So heading into his first meeting with Spurrier at home Saturday (TV: ESPN, 7:45 p.m.), instead of taking any shots at the No. 21 Gamecocks (6-2, 3-2 SEC), Kiffin went completely the other way – and only partly because he was trying to stay out of trouble with the conference.
