TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers and former Oklahoma standout quarterback Baker Mayfield was forced to take the podium for his weekly Wednesday news conference in a Michigan practice jersey after the Sooners' 17-10 loss to the Wolverines last week and a friendly wager with Bucs head coach Todd Bowles. Bowles enthusiastically sang Michigan's fight song and shouted, "Let's go Blue!" as Mayfield walked up onto the stage.
