Landry Kiffin had plenty to process after Saturday night in Oxford, but by Sunday morning she had settled on one thing she could smile about.
LSU’s 32-24 loss to Ole Miss gave Lane Kiffin a rough return to the place he spent six seasons, and Landry was in the stands for it all, backing her dad’s new team. The result didn’t break LSU’s way, but Landry, an Ole Miss student and the girlfriend of LSU linebacker Whit Weeks, still found a small victory in the aftermath.
She posted photos from the game on Instagram, including a look at the outfit she wore to support LSU in Oxford: a yellow Prada dress with matching heels. Her caption kept it simple. “Well at least the outfit was good,” Landry wrote in her post.
Former LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne jumped into the comments and added her own approval. Dunne, who dates Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, wrote, “the fit won.”
Landry also shared a few behind-the-scenes photos from getting ready for the game. One showed her with curlers in her hair, and she noted that she even grabbed a bite to eat with Bumble beforehand.
The night carried extra attention because Landry was stuck in the middle of multiple worlds at once. She goes to Ole Miss, her boyfriend plays for LSU, and her dad was coaching his first game back in Oxford since leaving the Rebels last November.
Before kickoff, she said she had already dealt with ugly behavior around town. In a TikTok video, Landry said people hung banners on houses in Oxford with gross jokes about her and someone she had never met.
“I opened my phone this morning to pictures of banners on houses around Oxford posted on different accounts saying really inappropriate things about me and with somebody that genuinely I have never met in my life which makes it even more frustrating to say the least,” Landry said in a TikTok video. “I think that turning a girl into the punch line of a sexual joke because you’re upset at somebody someone she’s related to should not be OK.”
She added, “I understand emotional are high this week and people are upset but I am my own person.”
On the field, LSU had a shot to keep the comeback alive, but it slipped away. Quarterback Sam Leavitt threw an interception on fourth down at Ole Miss’ six-yard line with LSU down by eight, and Lane Kiffin dropped to his knees after the play.
LSU will host Texas A&M on Sept. 26. Ole Miss will travel to Florida.

LSU Fans Are Debating What Really Happened In That Viral Stadium Fight
The Ole Miss-LSU game at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium had enough heat on the field already, but the attention spilled into the stands and concourses as multiple security incidents unfolded during the afternoon. Video from the scene quickly spread online, showing a physical struggle between an LSU fan and law enforcement that left visible injuries and gave the game an ugly side story LSU followers could not ignore.
Adding to the confusion, there was also a separate altercation in the concourse that ended with a security guard being struck, and an 18-year-old was later arrested on charges that included aggravated assault and resisting arrest. What still has fans debating is which incident that arrest is actually tied to, since the details have not been clearly connected yet. [Read more 🡒]
LSU Football Now Faces A Serious Off Field Case Beyond Campus
LSU football is now dealing with a serious off-field matter that stretches well beyond the program itself, with a criminal investigation underway after an alleged sexual assault involving an LSU player and a student on campus in October 2025. The East Baton Rouge District Attorneys Office has confirmed it is reviewing the case and has asked multiple agencies for all relevant reports and evidence, putting the situation squarely in the hands of both university and law enforcement officials.
LSU said it followed its Title IX process after the incident was first reported by the student-athlete and is cooperating as the investigation continues. For a program that already lives under a national spotlight, the case adds another layer of scrutiny at a time when the details remain limited and the legal process is still unfolding. [Read more 🡒]
LSU Loss Puts Sam Leavitt Under A Spotlight He Cant Escape
After LSUs loss to Ole Miss, the focus quickly shifted to Sam Leavitt, and not in a way any quarterback welcomes. Lane Kiffin stepped in to defend him, pointing first to the pressure Ole Miss brought and the way Leavitt had to operate with the rush closing in. Kiffin also made clear that Leavitts legs were a real part of the answer, even if the passing game never found the level LSU needed.
Leavitts performance now sits at the center of a larger conversation about what LSU can and cannot ask of its offense in tough matchups. Kiffins defense of the quarterback offered some context, but it also underscored the bigger issue: the Tigers still need cleaner execution through the air if they want to turn pressure-packed games into wins.
