George Kittle and Will Compton, two former Iowa Hawkeyes, have a friendly rivalry that has been going on for years. Every time their alma maters, Iowa and Nebraska, face off in college football, the two make a bet on the outcome of the game. This year, Kittle came out on top with Iowa’s 40-16 victory over Nebraska, and it seems like his prediction on Monday Night Football was spot on.
The rivalry between Kittle and Compton is not just about bragging rights, but it also has a charitable aspect to it. The two have been using their platform to raise money for various causes, and this year was no different. Kittle pledged to donate $10,000 to the University of Iowa’s Children’s Hospital if his team won, while Compton promised to do the same for Nebraska’s Children’s Hospital if his team emerged victorious. With Iowa’s win, Kittle will be making a generous donation to a cause close to his heart.
But the friendly competition between the two former teammates took an interesting turn when a Nebraska booster, who goes by the name “Voice Note,” decided to make a bet with Kittle. He challenged Kittle to a voice note bet, where the loser would have to record a voice note praising the other team and post it on social media. Voice Note was confident that his team, Nebraska, would come out on top, and he even went as far as to say that Kittle would have to “eat his words” after the game.
However, things did not go as planned for Voice Note, as Iowa dominated the game from start to finish. Kittle’s prediction on Monday Night Football turned out to be accurate, and Voice Note’s team suffered a crushing defeat. As promised, Kittle took to social media to share the voice note that Voice Note had to record, praising Iowa’s win and Kittle’s prediction skills. The video quickly went viral, with fans and followers of both Kittle and Voice Note sharing it across various platforms.
But the story doesn’t end there. Voice Note’s voice note bet had a twist to it. He had also challenged Kittle to a second bet, where the loser would have to wear the winning team’s jersey during their next NFL game. And with Iowa’s win, Kittle will be sporting an Iowa Hawkeyes jersey during the San Francisco 49ers’ next game. This will surely be a sight to see, as Kittle is known for his flashy and unique game-day outfits.
While Voice Note may have lost the bet, he took the defeat in good spirits. He even went on to congratulate Kittle and the Iowa Hawkeyes on their win, showing that the rivalry between the two is all in good fun. It’s heartwarming to see former teammates and friends use their platform to raise money for a good cause and have a friendly competition at the same time.
This is not the first time that Kittle and Compton’s rivalry has caught the attention of the media. Last year, Kittle and Compton made a bet on the outcome of the Iowa-Nebraska game, where the loser would have to wear the winning team’s jersey during their next NFL game. Kittle ended up losing the bet, and he sported a Nebraska Cornhuskers jersey during the 49ers’ game against the Seattle Seahawks. This year, Kittle will be looking for redemption as he wears the Iowa Hawkeyes jersey.
The annual rivalry challenge between Kittle and Compton has become a tradition that fans look forward to every year. It not only adds an extra layer of excitement to the game but also showcases the strong bond between former teammates. Kittle and Compton’s friendship and rivalry serve as a reminder that sports can bring people together, even if they are on opposing teams.
In the end, it’s not about who wins or loses the bet, but the impact that it has on the community. Kittle and Compton’s efforts to raise money for children’s hospitals through their friendly rivalry is truly commendable. And with Iowa’s win this year, Kittle will be making a generous donation to the University of Iowa’s Children’s Hospital, making a positive impact on the lives of many.
So, while Voice Note may have lost the bet, he can take solace in the fact that his team’s defeat will benefit a great cause. And as for Kittle, he can add another win to his
