Arizona State caught a stray during the alternate Simpsons-themed broadcast of the Monday Night Football game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Dallas Cowboys.

In an attempt to recreate the player introductions on the regular broadcast, the network had Simpsons characters state their name and college instead. When Krusty the Clown popped up on screen, he took a shot at the Sun Devils as he described his education.

“Hershel Krustofsky, clown college, also known as ASU,” the character said as he laughed.

Although Arizona State took a jab here, it’s been a pretty good year to be a Sun Devil. ASU won the Big 12 Championship over the weekend to punch its ticket to the College Football Playoff, where it will have a first-round bye.

The Sun Devils will either play Clemson or Texas in the quarterfinals of the CFP. They enter having won six straight games behind running back Cam Skattebo, who has rushed for at least 100 yards in each of the past three games.

The jab from the Simpsons broadcast seemed to be taking a shot at the education level one gets at ASU, and while it’s surely no Stanford, it’s still a respectable school. The joke seemed to be all in good fun so hopefully Arizona State and football fans as a whole can laugh at it.
