Monday’s CFP National Championship between the TCU Horned Frogs and the Georgia Bulldogs ended up being an absolute rout resulting in Georgia winning their second consecutive national championship in a 65-7 blowout victory. This is a result that NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal is certainly not thrilled about after making a hilarious bet on TCU.
O’Neal made a bet on the game last week with co-host Ernie Johnson, saying that he would eat a frog if Georgia ended up beating TCU in the game.
“If Georgia beats TCU I’ll eat some frogs. I’ll eat a Horned Frog,” said O’Neal before shaking on the bet with Johnson.

O’Neal clearly noticed that TCU had in fact lost to Georgia, congratulating Georgia in a post on Instagram and confirming that he will indeed eat honor the bet.
“The face u make when u gotta eat horned frog legs. Congratulations Georgia,” O’Neal posted on Instagram via NBA on TNT on Twitter.

It was honestly quite a silly bet considering Georgia came into the game as a 13.5-point favorite, and the sports world is now eager to see Shaq honor the bet.
“How would you like that cooked,” one fan joked.

It is unclear when Shaq will have to eat the frog legs to honor this bet, but it should certainly be entertaining to see him literally eat his words at the hands of this foolish bet.
