The Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles battled in a back-and-forth affair in Super Bowl LVII. However, the Chiefs were able to come out on top in a 38-35 shootout after a controversial penalty set up a game-winning field goal. Many didn’t expect this game to be so high-scoring, but one PGA Tour golfer’s miraculous prediction before the game has gone viral after the final result.
Greg Auman of Fox Sports asked a number of golfers on the PGA Tour on Sunday for a prediction for the Super Bowl. Some of them predicted the correct winner, but one predicted the final score and exactly how the final moments of the game would go.
When asked by Auman for a prediction, Stewart Cink told him that he thought the final score would be 38-35 with the Chiefs winning on a game-winning field goal from Harrison Butker.
“Chiefs 38, Eagles 35. It’s going to be a last-second field goal that wins the game. I actually love Jalen Hurts. I really love Jalen Hurts. Ever since that college football national championship when he got pulled, the way he handled that, he just won me over. But I do like the Chiefs organization, and I’ve had a few people this week tell me they’re from Kansas City and want me to root for Kansas City.”
The NFL world took notice of this wild Super Bowl prediction. Many commented how they couldn’t believe how insanely accurate Cink was down to every detail.
Welp. Nailed that one. https://t.co/dwxzy4XPVg

He was WAY off. That kick came with 8 seconds left!

If Cink was a betting man and actually placed a wager on this exact score with the Chiefs winning, he could have won $4,000 on just a $50 bet, according to Dave Mason of BetOnline.
Congrats to those who bet Chiefs 38 Eagles 35 exact final score. Top bet $50 to win $4000.
Eagles 37-34 bettors please toss your tin-foil hats in the garbage.
Refs suck (BS hold call late), but not scripted nor rigged.
