Hear this story Trinidad Chambliss wanted the win against LSU and Lane Kiffin .
He told reporters as much following Mississippi's top-10 win over the Tigers at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 19. In between his media obligations, he left a message — and a subtle shot — for his former head coach on social media.
"#JustDifferent," Chambliss wrote on the post. He was posing with members of Ole Miss' roster in the Rebels locker room with a cigar in his mouth and his teammates hoisting the Magnolia Bowl trophy.
