Franklin unimpressed fans thought Key impersonation was really him

This week's edition of "College GameDay" provided some laughs as well-known actor and comedian Keegan-Michael Key nailed his impression of Penn State head coach James Franklin so well, some thought it was the genuine article.

Franklin felt compelled to clarify that he and Key are in fact not the same person, and that he was not present on "SportsCenter" earlier that day.

"It's ridiculous that I have to address this, that was not me on 'SportsCenter' today. I got about a hundred nasty messages from people that thought that was me. That was not me," Franklin said.

"It's somewhat ridiculous that I have to say that, but we do look a lot alike. I was not on 'SportsCenter' today. That was a comedian who's a Penn State grad, is an awesome guy and we appreciate it, but just so we're clear that was not me on this afternoon."
