Everyone had to see this coming.
After a play Saturday in No. 3 Michigan’s game at No. 10 Penn State, one of the Nittany Lions players brutally mocked Michigan’s sign-stealing scandal.
And given the elaborate choreography, Dani Dennis-Sutton probably didn’t do this spontaneously, but had planned his troll job out in advance.
After a big defensive play by Penn State, the sophomore defensive end held up an imaginary pair of binoculars to his eyes, then pretended to scribble something in a notebook. The celebration clearly took a jab at Michigan’s sign-stealing scandal, which led Friday to the suspension of head coach Jim Harbaugh.
Some fans thought Dennis-Sutton’s celebration was clever, but Wolverines fans weren’t so kind, pointing out the Nittany Lions trailed 17-9 at the time. Even some Penn State fans admitted the celebration would not age well without a win.
If nothing else, the celebration set a bar for all future Michigan sign-stealing trolls, because they are coming, not just the rest of this year but possibly for years to come.
