The SEC Network almost had a Will Smith Oscar’s moment on Saturday during one of its halftime shows when analyst Peter Burns made a joke about fellow analyst Ben Watson’s wife.
A video of the painfully awkward incident went viral on social media, as Watson walked off set and then looked visibly upset after Burns joked about the former NFL tight end’s wife.
The joking began when Burns, who was wearing a dark-colored suit like his other two co-hosts, asked Watson if he didn’t get “the memo” about everyone wearing dark suits.
“As long as I get a text from my wife that says I look good,” joked Watson, who was wearing a light blue suit.
