A lot of former Alabama players are having to make good on their bets after the Tennessee Vols' 52-49 win over the Crimson Tide this past weekend.

We've already seen Boston Celtics guard JD Davison have to wear Vols gear after losing a bet to former Tennessee forward Grant Williams.

On Wednesday, we saw a few more Alabama players wearing Tennessee gear.

New York Giants offensive lineman Evan Neal and safety Xavier McKinney, former teammates at Alabama (for one season in 2019), both gave interviews this week while wearing Vols hats.

It's unclear who they lost a bet with. There are no former Vols players on the Giants' roster.

The only connection that I noticed is Giants strength coach Craig Fitzgerald, who was the strength coach at Tennessee for two seasons under former Vols head coach Jeremy Pruitt (2018 and 2019 seasons).

We've reached out for clarification on who the bets were with and we'll update this story if/when we hear back.
