Alabama has a meeting with Georgia on the horizon, but the Crimson Tide is focused on Ole Miss.

Nick Saban will battle another former assistant this month, as he travels to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium to face Lane Kiffin on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. CT on ESPN. Despite the six-time national champion being 20-0 versus his pupils, Kiffin believes he will be the first to hand Saban a loss.

He enters the matchup with a lot of talent on offense and looks to exploit the Tide on defense.
