The Heat Got Turned Up on Kiffin and Kelly

With MSU, TAM, and Alabama all having new coaches; the fan bases of Ole Miss and LSU are expecting their teams to be in contention for a conference title and expect a playoff birth next year. Despite moving away from the division format, each school expects to be the best team amongst former west teams. But, there can only be one winner.
How short will the leash be for Kelly and Kiffin if they aren’t in the top two or three in the SEC and fail to make the playoffs? How hot will their seats get? How many on here will be calling for their heads?

Who in their right mind wants to have a baby in the midst of the playoff?

Another 5 star left the Alabama program

If Fla struggles this year either Kiffin or Drink will be doing the gator chomp in Gainesville in 2025.

I don't know how short of a leash they'll have but I'm so so so very anxious after reading your devastating post.

What makes you think Ole Miss and LSU won't be in the playoffs? Under the 12-team format, Ole Miss would have made it this year. LSU coaches are always on the heat seat. Just the way it is in Baton Rouge.
From what I've read, Ole Miss fans are thrilled to have a coach who's achieved a 10-win floor two of the last three seasons. And whose name is connected to every opening at well-known P-5 programs. That's a good thing from a recruiting standpoint because Ole Miss just extended Kiffin's contract.
I see five SEC teams making this year's playoffs. Before Saban retired, I would have certainly expected 'Bama to make it; and they still could. Georgia's schedule is much tougher than it was last year, but I still think they are a fave to make it.
The other teams that have a great shot are: Texas (they only play one of the other six contenders); Missouri (they have one of the easier SEC schedules); Ole Miss (they do not play Texas, Alabama or Tennessee and get Oklahoma and Georgia at home); and both Tennessee and LSU.
Oklahoma has to play six of the other contenders and might have the toughest SEC schedule of all.
I'd end by saying that Kiffin has carte blanche right now; Kelly's seat is already warm.

Kiffin won’t have a short leash.
If LSU has another 3 loss season I expect them to start grumbling

All that pressure is on Kiffin. If Ole Miss doesn’t win the West next season , heads should roll

Captdalton….are you new to this? Ole Miss is not going to fire Kiffin if we don’t make the playoffs. Jesus. Will it be disappointing? Sure, but if we win 9 or 10 games and somehow miss the playoff I think Lane is safe lol….now, if we win 7 or 8 games next year he will have some splainin’ to do.

If those new coaches lower the bar from previous years it will only make Kiffin and Kelly have more cushion.

Kelly needs to add some major additions in the portal at DT and CB for that to even be a possibility next year.

Finally an honest LSU fan. Not many of them around.
Absolutely right. The pressure is now on Ole Miss and LSU. You both should be able to win against a Bama who according to you doesn't have a chance to win it all as long as DeBoer is there.

This is stupid.
Lane doesn't need to win the conference or make the CFP to keep his job. Ole Miss is not Bama.
