Someone by the name Dylan Hoyt chimed in calling the upset.

White’s confidence got the best of him promising Hoyt season tickets on the 50-yard line if Mercer upset Duke.
@DHoyt77 if mercer beat duke I will give you season tickets 50 yard line first row

Funny story… Mercer won. So will White pay up or will he go the Aaron Rodgers route?
White is paying up, kind of:
I lost a bet and I will give him tickets to the bears game since he is a bears fan done with this bet
