‘Always wrong’ – Skip Bayless called out by fans after terrible ‘27-0’ Red River Rivalry prediction
Despite being an Oklahoma Sooners fan, Skip Bayless was wrong about his prediction for their big game against the Texas Longhorns. The 122nd Red River Rivalry game delivered a classic at the Cotton Bowl on Saturday.
Skip Bayless, a fan of the Oklahoma Sooners, faced heavy criticism from fans after making a disastrous prediction for their 122nd Red River Rivalry game against the Texas Longhorns. The game, held at the Cotton Bowl on Saturday, saw the Sooners secure a surprising 27-24 victory, thanks to a late fourth-quarter comeback led by Tate Sandell's walk-off field goal.
Initially, Bayless had claimed that Oklahoma would "won't score a single point," boldly predicting a 27-0 victory for Texas. When the final score was announced, Bayless found himself in hot water, with fans quickly pointing out his grave error. Social media users bombarded him with questions on his unreliable track record and career choice, with one fan remarking, "How are you always so wrong? I will never understand how you have a career."
The backlash was relentless, with fans expressing their disbelief at Bayless's inability to grasp the "Sooner magic." One fan commented, "You seriously wear me out! How do you forget about SOONER magic so easily?! Come on man!" Another fan went as far as questioning his loyalty to the Sooners, writing, "Yeah, Oklahoma doesn't claim you bro, stop talking about us. You're not a true SOONER fan! Bandwagon!!"
Despite the trolling, Bayless remains unapologetic about his predictions, even when faced with overwhelming evidence to the contrary. This incident serves as a reminder that while fan predictions can be entertaining, they are often far from accurate.
