It happens every year in NFL locker rooms. Players will make bets with old college rivals, with hopes of their alma mater coming out on top in some of the biggest games of the year.
Unfortunately for Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley, that meant he ended up addressing the media on Friday dressed from head to toe in Georgia Tech gear. That is because the former UGA star lost a bet with some teammates when the Yellow Jackets upended the Bulldogs last weekend.
Poor Gurley.

Rams fullback Zach Laskey, who is currently on injured reserve, also shared a photo of the star running back repping the Yellow Jackets.

College football rivalries never die.

At least Gurley was a good sport and followed through on his end of the bet, even if it was a tough thing for the former Bulldog to do.
