Maryland Coach Mike Locksley Comes Up With Genius Way To Cheat Duke’s Mayo Bowl Mayo Bath

The Maryland Terrapins picked up an impressive 16-12 victory over North Carolina State in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl on Friday.

The victory gave the Terps eight wins on the year and marked their first back-to-back bowl wins since 1984-1985.

Maryland players were understandably ecstatic after the game. But head coach Mike Locksley didn’t seem as enthused. That’s because Locksley, as the winning coach in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl, agreed to take the traditional Mayo bath.

What is a Mayo bath? We’re glad you asked.

Well, you’ve heard of a Gatorade bath. Now imagine one of those buckets filled with mayonnaise. Even as mayo fan (it’s good, you cowards) the thought just makes me gag.

South Carolina coach Shane Beamer was the first to participate last year and the tradition has now continued. On the bright side, Duke’s also donates $10,000 to a charity of the winning coach’s choosing.

That didn’t seem like much consolation for Locksley, who looked miserable the minute the final whistle blew. He’d later explain that he’s not a big fan of mayo. But thankfully, he came prepared.

That’s because Locksley came equipped with a massive oversized hat that protected his entire head and neck area from being covered in mayo. He later revealed that the big hat company Noggin Boss, which was made famous by Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson earlier this year, was founded by former Maryland football player Sean Starner.

Locksley wasn’t entirely lucky, however, as after he took off the hat the mayo dumpers doused him in the remaining Duke’s mayonnaise.

He seemed completely unaware and none-too-pleased about that fact, even as Maryland players and fans chanted “take off the hat” at him.

Fans and college football sickos alike called foul with Locksley’s use of the big hat.

Maybe a mayo dunk is in order next year?
