92.9/The Game digital content producer and weekend host Knox Bardeen was so confident the Clemson Tigers would lose the college football championship game against Alabama Crimson Tide, he made an ill-fated bet with mid-day hosts Rick Kamla and John Michaels.

Lucky for Bardeen, he didn't bet on a permanent tattoo.
