Watch Jeopardy! Contestants Bomb Every Single Question in the Football Category

Jeopardy! contestants may know their word puzzles and 19th-century English literature, but sports aficionados they are not. At least that was the case with the lineup of contestants competing in the game that aired February 1. According to The Daily Dot, the players bombed all five questions in last night’s football category, provoking sassy remarks from Alex Trebek.

After blowing through the rest of the board and leaving the entire “Talkin’ Football” category untouched, contestants reluctantly dove in. The clues, which dealt with popular teams and basic plays, left everyone stumped. After the first clue was met with deafening silence, Trebek could already see how the end of the round would play out. “I can tell you guys are big football fans,” he quipped. His other stinging one-liners included: “Do you think we should go to commercial?” and “If you guys ring in and get this one, I will die.”

Luckily the episode also included some non-sports categories, so the show was able to go on.
