Kirk Herbstreit is a great television analyst.  For whatever reason though, he gets a ton of crap from college football fans on Twitter that always think he is biased against their team for whatever reason.  This includes pseudo-celebrities whose lives have been depicted on the big screen like Leigh Anne Tuohy of The Blind Side fame.  The Ole Miss supporter wasn’t too happy with what she perceived as a lack of credit after the Rebs upset #2 Alabama on the road.

Herbstreit had apparently had enough from crabby Ole Miss fans and fired this shot, saying Tuohy was embarrassing herself…

And then another towards the “lunatic fringe” of the Ole Miss fanbase…

Thankfully, cooler heads prevailed Sunday morning.  Herbstreit apologized to Tuohy and she accepted.

Someone needs to make the definitive “Leave Kirk Herbstreit alone” YouTube video.  If fighting with television analysts is what happens after Ole Miss wins, I wonder what would have happened had they lost to Alabama…
