Actress and heartthrob Sydney Sweeney had a witty comeback to an overeager college football mascot on Saturday.
Ahead of Ohio State’s showdown against Oregon, the latter’s popular Duck mascot was seen on ESPN’s College GameDay holding up a sign that read: ‘Sydney Sweeney call me back.’
The actress then responded on social media. On her Instagram story, Sweeney posted a photo of a TV as the Duck held his sign.
‘Sorry. Changed my number haha,’ Sweeney wrote.
Users took to social media to share their reactions to Sweeney’s response, most of which foreshadowed a win for the Ducks.

The 5-0 Ducks are gearing up for a huge matchup against the 5-0 Buckeyes. The teams are No 3 and No 2 in the nation, respectively.
The Buckeyes secured dominant wins over the course of their season with a 52-6 win over Akron and a 56-0 win over West Michigan to start the season. They then followed it with a 49-14 win over Marshall, a 38-7 win over Michigan State, and a 35-7 win over Iowa.
On the other hand, Oregon – who recently entered the Big Ten – comes into Saturday’s game behind much closer wins.
The Ducks bested Idaho, Boise State, Oregon State, UCLA, and Michigan State. The third-ranked team beat each opponent, 24-14, 37-34, 49-14, 34-13, and 31-10, respectively.
While the mascot was trying to get the Euphoria star’s attention, the College GameDay crew were split 3-3 when naming their horse in the race.
Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee, and Kaitlin Olson favor the Ducks. Meanwhile, Nick Saban, Lee Corso, and Kirk Herbsreit are backing Ohio State.
