Ole Miss Rebels coach Lane Kiffin’s daughter Landry Kiffin hard launched her relationship with LSU Tigers star linebacker Whit Weeks the week of the two teams play each other.

The 20-year-old Landry goes to Ole Miss and has been dad’s No. 1 fan giving him a sweet gift after his 100th win, to a sweet hug after a game.

She’s also is always a game-day fit hit with her Rebels pride looks like her white-out one for the first home game this season that she even crushed with mom Layla Kiffin, and then last week’s Rebels-black shorts and top.

But then she dropped a bombshell of a post that wasn’t about her fit this time. Landry would cozy up to Weeks in a post about being “happy” with other photos, but this was the one that went viral.

Weeks would confirm the relationship by reposting the picture and tagging Landry in it.

Ole Miss and LSU are of course two SEC rivals, and No. 4 LSU is visiting No. 13 this weekend leaving fans to wonder how that’s going to play out in the Kiffin household:

After the news was reported all over, Lane commented on Trey Wallace’s post that talked about “mind games.” He had a three-word response: “Take the over 🏈.”

That’s so Lane Kiffin with his response about his daughter’s relationship with Weeks. No doubt there will be more to come in what is an awkward circumstance for the week of the big Ole Miss vs. LSU game.
