NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – In this edition of FFF: Lane Kiffin needs to focus on the Ole Miss Rebels, the NBA takes a cue from European soccer, and the Southerns are on fire.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL

The LSU-Alabama game is in primetime at Tiger Stadium. Honestly, nothing is better in college football.

But not everyone agrees with me. That includes Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin. This was his reaction when he found out that Georgia vs. Ole Miss was at 2:30 and LSU-Bama was at 6:30 on the same day.

“LSU plays at night again, surprise. That’s two for two for them. I feel bad that our fans didn’t have a night conference game.”

Well, guess what Lane. If you didn’t lose to LSU in Tiger Stadium, your game would be in prime time, because it would be a top-10 matchup.

But you didn’t beat the Tigers, so enjoy the 2:30 p.m. kickoff.

SOCCER

The Los Angeles Clippers debuted their new Intuit Dome for a regular season game last week. Its construction cost 2 billion dollars.

One of the most impressive features is “The Wall”. It has 51 uninterrupted rows of seats, and the first 13 rows are filled with die-hard Clippers fans whose fandom is pre-vetted by the franchise.

Last week, the Suns’ Kevin Durant missed two free throws when facing “The Wall.” Owner Steve Ballmer had the idea of ​​a soccer stadium in Europe.

The original is “The Yellow Wall” by the German soccer club Borussia Dortmund. “The Yellow Wall” is the largest section of Dortmund’s stadium. It houses 25,000 fans and is absolutely raucous on match days.

FOOD

Southerners are certainly having a moment.

They started with a food truck and now have a brick-and-mortar restaurant on Veterans Blvd.

The Southerners took home two awards at Top Taco and then two more at Poboy Fest.

They already have one of the best chicken sandwiches in town and now they’re pairing their chops with beef, shrimp, and fish dishes.
