Even though former Oregon running back Bucky Irving helped lift the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a 48-14 victory over the Carolina Panthers with 190 scrimmage yards, former Washington Huskies star Jalen McMillan refused to say anything nice about his school’s mascot.
In a viral moment, a duck wandered onto the field in the third quarter and the game was briefly halted as members of the on-field crew had to get the bird off the field. Shortly after, it got to take in a touchdown from the best seats in the house as former Husky Joe Tryon-Shoyinka blocked a punt that linebacker J.J. Russell took 23 yards to the end zone in the rout.
After the game, some Buccaneers called it a good luck duck, but McMillan wasn’t among them.
“It was one of the bad moments of the game,” McMillan told members of the media. “It’s not a good luck duck. Ducks aren’t good luck, they’re weird. I hate ducks”
McMillan didn’t need any luck on Sunday, as his strong connection with quarterback Baker Mayfield continued. He hauled in 5 catches for 51 yards and 2 touchdowns, running his total to 6 scores in Tampa Bay’s last four games.
Former Washington football star, Jake Browning, took a playful jab at Oregon after a viral moment caught him in an unexpected situation. Browning, known for his time as a standout quarterback for the Huskies, found himself in a hilarious predicament during a recent charity event.
In a video that quickly spread across social media, Browning was seen struggling to tackle a mechanical bull at the event, much to the amusement of onlookers. The video garnered plenty of attention and even caught the eye of some former rivals, including those from Oregon.
Taking to Twitter, Browning couldn’t resist poking fun at himself and taking a lighthearted shot at the Ducks. “Just like trying to tackle an Oregon running back,” he quipped, accompanied by a laughing emoji.
While the playful banter between Browning and Oregon may have been in good fun, it’s clear that the competitive spirit still runs strong between these Pac-12 rivals. And who knows, maybe this viral moment will inspire a new tradition of mechanical bull-riding contests between the two schools.
