LSU star Whit Weeks confirms relationship with Lane Kiffin’s daughter days before Ole Miss game

LSU linebacker Whit Weeks appeared to confirm a relationship with Landry Kiffin, the daughter of Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin, in a social-media post released days before the Tigers visit Oxford for a marquee SEC matchup.

Landry Kiffin posted a photo of the two as part of an Instagram slideshow, with the gallery captioned 'happy.' Weeks left a playful reply in the comments: 'Nice dude,' and Landry responded, 'Thanks bud.' The exchange marked a rare public moment ahead of Saturday's game between LSU and Ole Miss.

The timing of the post has drawn attention as the matchup between Weeks' LSU squad and Lane Kiffin's Rebels looms in Oxford. The game is one of the early marquee SEC contests of the 2025 season, with both programs entering 4-0 records and eyeing a signature early-season win.

Weeks is among the SEC's top defenders. He led the league in solo tackles last season with 61. Through four games this season, he has 11 total tackles, including five solo, along with a tackle for a loss and a half-sack. LSU enters the weekend ranked No. 4 in the Associated Press top 25.

Ole Miss, under Lane Kiffin since 2020, has also started 4-0 through four games and is aiming to sustain its strong start against an opponent that has dominated the conference on defense in Weeks' role with LSU.

Saturday's showdown in Oxford is expected to draw national attention for both teams and for the personal storyline linked to Weeks and Landry Kiffin. The SEC matchup will be a focal point for fans and analysts tracking the conference's early-season picture.
