Eli Drinkwitz asks Paul Finebaum about ‘Mike Gundy moment’ on plane

At Big 12 Media Days last week, Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy generated some buzz when he discussed Ollie Gordon’s recent arrest for DUI. The coach recalled his response to it and how he “did that 1,000 times” – comments he later clarified.

But when Paul Finebaum discussed an experience on a plane to Los Angeles for the Rose Bowl, Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz saw an opportunity to make a joke. And he took it.

Finebaum recalled where he was when Missouri defeated Ohio State 14-3 in that game. He was sitting behind some Michigan fans who, for obvious reasons, were enjoying the Tigers’ performance. Finebaum said they had a few drinks and he decided to watch the game as well.

Drinkwitz didn’t miss a beat. That’s when he jumped in to ask if Finebaum had a “Mike Gundy moment.”

“I watched the Cotton Bowl on a plane to L.A. for the Rose Bowl, and I sat behind two drunk Michigan fans – who I don’t know if they’ve ever had more fun watching that game,” Finebaum said. “And I decided to do the same thing.”

“You decide to get drunk?” Drinkwitz chimed in. “Are you having a Mike Gundy moment right now?”

“I think I was, yeah,” Finebaum responded in joking fashion. “But they were having so much fun, and [you] just beat these guys to a pulp. I mean, it was just a pounding. And I was there for it, even with two despicable Michigan fans.”

This story will be updated.
