Moore responded to Lane Kiffin's accusations that he spit on and used a racial slur in the direction of one of his players.

Moore said in a statement that the accusations are not true. The false accusations that were made last night overshadowed my last game as a collegiate student athlete.

Since arriving at Texas Tech, I have tried to represent my teammates, the coaching staff and my family in the best possible way. It has been an honor to be a part of this program, as we ended our season with a victory.

Texas Tech finished the year with a fourth straight victory under first-year head coachJoey McGuire.

The teams got into a fight after Texas Tech recovered a fumbled ball by Ole Miss' Dayton Wade. Jordan Watkins was given a personal foul for pushing and shoving.

The penalty should have been on Moore, instead of Watkins, according to Kiffin.

Jordan Watkins was not in the fight. Everyone knew about the fight because their own coaches were yelling at the guy.

There was a racial slur involved, but that's not what we're talking about. Are you aware that I brought our own 71 up to the officials? He isn't crying because he got spit on, but because something was said.

Kiffin was unsure if a Texas Tech player used a racial slur.

Kiffin made similar comments.

The opposing head coach decided to make false and irresponsible allegations. The two claims that were brought against him were disputed by the man.

I am proud of our team and their performance last night, in front of a sea of Red Raiders, in what was a memorable win.
