Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin, following the release of this week's edition of the College Football Playoff rankings, took some jabs at the ACC and Big 12 on his weekly radio show, "Reb Talk".

The Rebels, who lost this past weekend to the 6-5 Florida Gators, came in at No. 14 in the nation, ranked behind three teams from the ACC: Miami at six, SMU at nine and Clemson at twelve.

Kiffin, speaking on his team's chance at making the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff, said, "We need to play really well, first off [against Mississippi State]. That's what's in our control, and then other things to happen. And I'm not saying because of us, but it's ridiculous the difference of playing in the SEC and the ACC and Big 12 and seeing these rankings," Kiffin continued on, "I'm not even doing the Ole Miss homer thing. (...) Take some of those teams that are up there [ACC, Big 12] that haven't played anybody and put them down in the SEC, they're .500 teams."

Luckily for Kiffin, one of "those teams up there that haven't played anybody" actually has a common opponent with the Rebels. The same Florida Gators team that defeated Kiffin's Ole Miss squad this past weekend took on the Miami Hurricanes earlier this season and lost 41-17.
