CBS college basketball analyst Clark Kellogg got a bit tongue-tied while talking about the West Region of the 2023 NCAA tournament.
While mentioning six-seeded TCU, Kellogg called the team the “Froghorns,” which was very much incorrect.
Those in Fort Worth will quickly tell you that TCU’s mascot is the Horned Frog, not the Froghorn. There is no such thing as the Froghorn.
There is a foghorn, which bellows a loud noise to help ships sailing in foggy conditions avoid treacherous obstacles as they head into port. There is also Foghorn Leghorn, the Looney Tunes rooster with a Southern drawl.
However, the Froghorn does not exist. It’s just a hilarious verbal blooper from Kellogg as he broke down this year’s March Madness bracket.

Alright, live television is hard, and we all know what team Kellogg was talking about. Even so, this is just one of those gaffes you can’t help but chuckle at.
How will the Froghorns do in the NCAA tournament this year? Well, they didn’t make it, but the Horned Frogs might could make some waves.
