In a playful exchange on Tom Brady’s podcast, “Let’s Go!”, the legendary quarterback engaged in some friendly banter and jokingly placed a bet on the upcoming game between Ohio State University (OSU) and the University of Michigan (UM) with former Buckeyes star, C.J. Stroud. While the wager may have involved Brady’s Super Bowl ring, it was all in good fun.
Key Takeaway
Tom Brady amusingly suggests a wager involving his Super Bowl ring with C.J. Stroud, but quickly clarifies that he was only joking.
During the podcast episode, Brady, a proud UM alumnus, teased Stroud by saying, “So, if Ohio State wins… how about this, you get one of my Super Bowl rings.” However, he swiftly followed up, making it clear that he was not being serious, and added a humorous condition for the potential reverse outcome: “And if Michigan beats Ohio State, then you got to give me all your youth, your agility, your time in the 40, and all your future years in the NFL.”
Stroud played along for a moment, accepting the wager before quickly emphasizing that he had no intention of taking Brady’s Super Bowl rings, stating, “I’m not going to take your Super Bowl rings, Tom! I’m not going to lie. That’s yours, bro. I want to get my own.”
While it remains uncertain whether Brady and Stroud will make any actual bets on this year’s rivalry game, their confident banter about their former teams suggests a high level of anticipation surrounding the matchup. The highly-anticipated game is scheduled for November 25th and has the potential to feature the top two ranked teams in the country by kickoff.
