ESPN Sr. Director of Public Relations Keri Potts has had an interesting morning. She tweeted some stats about Orange Bowl that took place on Friday night.

The tweet that started it:

The @OrangeBowl posted a 7.2 overnight rating giving the 4-game BCS avg on ESPN a 8.6 rating – up 15 percent from last year’s 4-game avg.

Georgia Tech Senior Associate AD Ryan Bamford responded saying the ratings would’ve been higher had Matt Millen not been in the booth. His opinion, which he is entitled to.

@MsPotts_ESPN @OrangeBowl would have gotten a 10 if Matt Millen wasn’t Tessitore’s booth-mate. #justsayin

Ms. Potts didn’t take to kindly to his words, took it personally and fired off some shots.

@GTbammer24 I’m sorry, shouldn’t you be busy finding a football coach or something?

@GTbammer24 or is it a quarterback? — Keri Potts (@MsPotts_ESPN) January 4, 2014

Bamford wasn’t going to respond, and decided to take “the high road.”

I’ll take the high road on this conversation “@MsPotts_ESPN: #justsayin” — Ryan Bamford (@GTbammer24) January 4, 2014

Potts went the other route and fired off another shot.

@GTbammer24 doesn’t seem you could find the high road from the gutter. — Keri Potts (@MsPotts_ESPN) January 4, 2014

[UPDATE:] Apparently they’re friends and it was all a joke:

@GTbammer24 ha! No worries. You owe me dinner, pal. See you soon.
