Maybe Brian Kelly shouldn’t have challenged Pat McAfee.

While appearing on the Pat McAfee Show ahead of ESPN’s College GameDay broadcast from LSU’s campus on Saturday, McAfee brought up the long-running and currently-banned LSU tradition of singing Neck during big moments.

The lyrics are extremely NSFW, so it makes sense the school wouldn’t want to actively promote it.

Yet when McAfee brought up the chant to Kelly on Friday — but stopped short of singing the full lyrics — the Tigers’ coach joked that “this must be a PG show now”.

Kelly obviously can’t outright condone the chant given the school’s stance, but he had to be honest about the fanbase’s affinity for it. Which came back to bite him Saturday when McAfee couldn’t stop encouraging fans to sing along during College GameDay.

When McAfee invoked a rendition while Kelly was making an appearance on ESPN’s flagship college football show, the coach immediately began blushing, uttering “I’m out” before the students kicked into the NSFW lyrics.

Let that be a lesson to everyone who appears on Pat McAfee’s shows: Do not challenge this man to say things he’s been told by others not to.
