Or like Lane Kiffin’s ego after his (and Bregman’s) LSU Tigers were beaten by the Ole Miss team Kiffin dropped like a bad habit last season. Bregman suffered …

Benetti will often elevate a broadcast with a witty observation, expertly setting up his partner to pick up on that riff and look good in the process. But on Monday, the assist went directly to the Tigers’ broadcast team … at Benetti’s expense.
