Lane Kiffin out as Alabama's offensive coordinator, will not coach title game

Lane Kiffin is out as Alabama's offensive coordinator and will not coach in the national championship game against Clemson, head coach Nick Saban announced Monday.

"We appreciate all that Lane has done for our football program over the last three years," Saban said. "We sat down following the Washington game and talked about the time demands of managing both jobs, and we recognized that it is best for our players, and for Lane, that we allow him to turn his full attention to his new head coaching role at FAU."
