Pat McAfee fires back at Urban Meyer for College GameDay criticism

Former Ohio State head coach and current CFB on FOX analyst Urban Meyer appeared to take a slight shot at ESPN’s Pat McAfee during an interview with the Big Ten Network’s Mike Hall on Wednesday.

Well, McAfee wasted listed time responding on Twitter:

I know it can be hard to remember things but it was a river not a lake.

My mom as soon as it happened said “When you were in the air, I started having heart complications OUT OF NOWHERE”

She’s been completely fine ever since.. happy for her.

Anyways, thanks 4 watching Coach. https://t.co/7yjDJAlGIP

Meyer’s comment appears to be a reference to McAfee’s plunge into the Brazos River during College GameDay’s trip to the Baylor Bears’ campus in Waco, Texas on November 16:

Kicking for the West Virginia Mountaineers from 2005-08, McAfee was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the seventh round of the 2009 NFL Draft (No. 222 overall).

Playing in the league for eight seasons, he was a first-team All-Pro selection in 2014 and was a two-time Pro Bowler (2014, 2016).

In their first year without Meyer, No. 1 Ohio State will battle No. 8 Wisconsin at – ironically – Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Colts, in the B1G Championship Game at 8:00PM ET on Saturday on FOX.
