?At Least You Keep the Rocket Arm?: Tom Brady Highlights CJ Stroud?s Smart Move After Michigan?s Close Win Against Ohio State

The confidence that retired NFL GOAT and Michigan alum Tom Brady has for his college football team is commendable. After a light-hearted bet with Houston Texans QB CJ Stroud who was a former Ohio State player, the 7-time SB champion teases the 22-year-old who decided to withdraw from the bet after Ohio State lost to Michigan 30-24.?

With Harbaugh’s suspension and things looking uncertain for the Wolverines, Brady came out in strong support of his alma mater, betting on them winning beyond all doubt. The Wolverine’s victory marks their third straight win against Ohio State, also sealing their hopes of participating in the Big Ten Championship game next month.?

Tom Brady light-heartedly taunts CJ Stroud after Michigan wins

Former Michigan QB Tom Brady vouchers for his team and is confident to even bet one of his SB rings if his former team loses. Interestingly, CJ Stroud accepted the bet offered by the NFL legend on his Let’s Go! podcast. And now that Michigan won, Tom Brady took to Twitter to post an amusing tweet about CJ Stroud not taking the bet calling it a “smart move.” He stated, “At least you keep the rocket arm and 4.4 40 time.”?

Prior to the heated rivalry game between Ohio State and Michigan, even NFL GOAT Tom Brady had to take a bet. On his podcast, he set up a wager with the former Buckeyes player saying, “If Ohio State wins, you get one of my SB rings. If Michigan (wins), then you give me all your youth, your agility, your time in the 40, and all your future years in the NFL.”

CJ Stroud replied to the challenge with a three-word response, “That’s a bet.” Needless to say, it seems the Houston Texans starting QB is withdrawing from the bet after Ohio State crumbled in a 30-24 defeat.?
