NBA on TNT host and University of Georiga alumnus Ernie Johnson was prepared when Charles Barkley showed up to Thursday’s show in a Baker Mayfield jersey.

When he saw Barkley supporting the Sooners on the “TNT Halftime Report”, Johnson took off his jacket and microphone and put on a No. 32 Georgia jersey with “Poppy” on the back— the name his grandchildren call him.

The third-ranked Georgia Bulldogs and No. 2 Oklahoma Sooners face off in the Rose Bowl on Monday at 5 p.m. ET.
