The Missouri football team is going to its first bowl game in three seasons, and an ultra-famous music producer has played a minor role in the Tigers’ success.

DJ Khaled, who has produced collaborations with some of hip-hop’s greatest stars, has multiple catchphrases that he has popularized through his music and social media, and one of them — “secure the bag” — has become the Tigers’ catchphrase, too. They began adopting it just before they started a five-game win streak that has helped them become just the second Southeastern Conference team to ever reach bowl eligibility after starting a season 1-5.
