Peter Burns and Benjamin Watson indicate that all is well in Charlotte.
The SEC Network colleagues posed for a photo that Burns shared to his Twitter account with a “friendship” hashtag Saturday afternoon. Watson doesn’t look so sure about said friendship, presumably for laughs.

Things got awkward in the SEC Network studios during halftime of the Vanderbilt-Florida game. A discussion about suits led to Burns joking about getting a text from Watson’s wife, which the former Georgia standout did not appreciate.

When SEC Network went back live to the studio, Burns and Watson were not on set, leaving Chris Doering and Takeo Spikes to awkwardly address the audience.

We’ll see how things go with the studio crew for the rest of the Week 12 games and “SEC Football Final.”
