Studio hosts Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley had to step in when the television broadcast truck lost power in Oklahoma City during Sunday's second-round matchup between Northern Iowa and Texas A&M.

Barkley took advantage of the opportunity to poke fun at the residents of Oklahoma.

The NBA legend jokingly referred to the inhabitants of the Sooner State as "country bumpkins" and claimed they go "cow tipping" to pass the time.

Thankfully for both basketball fans and Oklahomans, power to the truck was restored shortly thereafter.
