Lane Kiffin is in March Madness form.

The Ole Miss football coach didn’t miss a chance to throw a soft jab at the Auburn basketball team after it was knocked out by No. 13-seeded Yale in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

The former Alabama offensive coordinator simply wished the Tigers “good luck.” He just sent the kind words after the Tigers fell 78-76 to the Ivy League school

John Poulakidas scored 28 points, Samson Aletan made a key block during a wild scramble in the final seconds, and 13th-seeded Yale beat No. 4 seed Auburn.

For the second straight year, the Ivy League Tournament champion took down one of the pre-tournament favorites. The Bulldogs won an NCAA Tournament game for just the second time in school history, rallying from a 10-point deficit midway through the second half.

Johni Broome led Auburn with 24 points and 13 rebounds.

Auburn rolled through the SEC Tournament last week and became a favored pick as a team that could take down No. 1 overall seed UConn should the pair end up clashing in the Sweet 16.

But the Tigers failed to get out the first round and joined fellow SEC schools South Carolina, Kentucky, Florida and Mississippi State amid the early departures from March Madness.
