Lane Kiffin got exactly what he asked for on Saturday and more from our college football quotes of the week.
“Let’s both beat the state of Alabama today. Go Vols.”

“This is college football at its absolute best.”

“This tastes terrible, but it also tastes great. Also, don’t tell my doctor that I’m doing this. Though he is a Vols fan, so he probably won’t care.”
A Tennessee fan wearing a coonskin cap who identified himself only as “The Mayor of the Mountains”, on the victory cigar he smoked after the Volunteers’ victory
“We got the fourth-down stop, I’m walking off the field, taking my helmet up, ask for water and I look up at the scoreboard and see Blake breaking one loose. I’m happy for them, but I’m looking at 2 (Blake Corum) and 7 (Donovan Edwards) and I’m like, ‘Bruh, y’all got to let us get a break a little bit.’ I’m like, ‘I love y’all, good job but …’. Our backs are crazy.”
Michigan Wolverines defensive lineman Mike Morris, on his team’s offense not giving him a break during their victory over the Penn State Nittany Lions. Corum and Edwards combined for 339 yards rushing and four touchdowns on the ground
“I just always assumed Southlake was on a lake. It turns out it’s not.”
