Earlier this week we told you about Alabama head coach Nick Saban complaining that the media's praise of his squad is like "rat poison" to his players. Apparently the Crimson Tide's leader believes media hype played a hand in his team's ho-hum 27-19 win over Texas A&M on Saturday.

Now Saban's "BFF" has chimed in.
Check out the tweet from former Bama offensive coordinator and current Florida Atlantic head coach Lane Kiffin.

This is the second time in a matter of days that the Owls have taken shots at the SEC power.
The school released this "Roll Owls" video a few days ago that's clearly mocking Bama's famous "Roll Tide" chant.

Unfortunately for us, FAU is not slated to take on Kiffin's former school in the foreseeable future.
