Milk Bowl

On3 NIL called it "one of the funniest NIL deals to date." Sports Illustrated declared it "a must-watch." And thousands of Georgia and Tennessee fans rallied around their favorite college football players in the name of milk.

What makes milk nature's sports drink? It's packed with protein, and it can keep you hydrated. But which of these benefits matters most to what makes milk great? We put it to a vote.

The pièce de résistance: two bespoke videos we scripted and shot in Athens and Knoxville. One of them even made it to broadcast—during the Georgia vs. Tennessee game on November 18th, 2023.

I would be remiss not to extend my gratitude and note that, while practically everyone at The Partnership played a part in bringing this campaign to life, I'm especially thankful for the contributions and expertise of Emily Kurek, Lindsay Muncy, CHOMP, our creative director Tyler Pierce—and, of course, our terrific partners at The Dairy Alliance.
