The moment came during Tuesday's College Championship game between Yale sophomore Nathaniel Miller, Florida State University junior Sophie Casarico, and University of Florida sophomore Kayla Kalhor.

While in control of the board during Double Jeopardy, Miller chose the $800 clue from the "Health & Medicine" category. Host Alex Trebek then read the clue out loud, saying, "From a Greek word for people, it describes a disease that affects many people at one time."
