Landry Kiffin Condemns Vulgar Banners Ahead of Ole Miss-LSU Game

Published 19 September 2026

Vulgar banners targeting Landry Kiffin, daughter of LSU head coach Lane Kiffin, were displayed on houses around Oxford, Mississippi, ahead of Saturday's highly anticipated game against Ole Miss. The banners contained sexual rumors linking Landry to former Ole Miss player Ulysses Bentley IV, prompting her to publicly condemn them. Landry Kiffin, who is a student at Ole Miss, addressed the situation in a TikTok video on Wednesday. She stated that she has never met Bentley and denied the rumors. "I think that turning a girl into the punchline of a sexual joke because you're upset at somebody she's related to should not be okay," she said. She added that the attacks were especially upsetting because she still attends Ole Miss and has enjoyed her time there. The incident has drawn widespread criticism from college football fans and commentators. Many called the banners "disgusting" and urged fans to leave coaches' families out of rivalries. One fan wrote, "She did nothing wrong. This is just all disgusting." Another fan said, "Let's leave the kids out of it." The controversy comes as Lane Kiffin returns to Oxford for the first time since leaving Ole Miss for LSU after six seasons.
