Peyton and Eli Manning have already become well known for their careers and their recent broadcasting endeavors. Now, the 2 brothers might become known for gambling.
Eli Manning sent out a tweet on Saturday jokingly offering a wager to his older brother concerning the Tennessee-Ole Miss game. Per Eli, the loser of today’s Tennessee-Ole Miss game has to wear the other brother’s college jersey during their commentary on Monday Night Football. Peyton Manning played for Tennessee. Eli Manning played for Ole Miss.
“Peyt, you can’t run and you can’t hide. You wimped out on broadcasting the Ole Miss/UT game but you can’t bail on this- Ole Miss win you wear an Ole Miss Jersey the first have of MNF and vice versa. Don’t respond to this if you accept the bet,” Eli tweeted.
Perhaps the game should be called “The David Cutcliffe Bowl”. The Duke coach mentored both brothers as the offensive coordinator at Tennessee and head coach at Ole Miss before they both had very successful careers in the NFL.
