Look: Penn State defender trolls Michigan football with sign-stealing celebration

Michigan has been at the center of a college football scandal, with coach Jim Harbaugh facing a three-game suspension for the program's ongoing sign-stealing scandal. On Saturday, No. 10 Penn State decided to poke fun at the No. 3 Wolverines as they faced off in Beaver Stadium.

During the Wolverines and Nittany Lions' Big Ten East game on Saturday, Penn State edge rusher Dani Dennis-Sutton made a first-down stop and celebrated the play by motioning binoculars with his hands before starting to mimic writing in a notebook.

Dennis-Sutton, of course, referenced former Wolverines assistant Connor Stalions, who resigned at Michigan following news of his involvement in the sign-stealing scandal. Stalions reportedly bought tickets to multiple games and used a network of scouts to illicitly steal opponents' signs, ostensibly granting the Wolverines a competitive advantage.

J.J. McCarthy went on to reference Dennis-Sutton's celebration later in the game, showing that it wasn't lost on the Wolverines.

Michigan went on to win 24-15, and closed the game out with 32 straight rushing plays without a single second half throw.

The 6-5, 258-pound Dennis-Sutton entered Saturday's matchup with 37 total tackles, 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in his two seasons with the Nittany Lions.
