If Marvel wants some fresh blood for its Black Panther sequel, they should seriously consider Los Angeles Chargers offensive tackle, Russell Okung. During Sunday Night Football's player intros—in which the players introduce themselves and state their alma mater—Okung decided to have some fun with it by saying that he graduated from "Wakanda Tech".
Okung, who actually attended Oklahoma State University, had Black Panther fans in a frenzy.
A few minutes later, Wakanda Tech had replaced Oklahoma State on Okung's Wiki page.
Some were quick to point out that even Wakanda would struggle against the Crimson Tide (no they wouldn't—Nick Saban would try to sell Danai Gurira's Okoye character on a full ride to Bama).
This isn't the first time that a player has used the segment to have some fun. Terrell Suggs once said he came out of "Ball so Hard" University, while former Pats tight end Martellus Bennett called himself "Marty" from "The Imagination Agency," which is actually the name of his company that released a series of children’s books.
