P.J. Fleck launches himself, crowd surfs in locker room after upsetting Penn State
Minnesota was undefeated going into the game against Penn State. Penn State was undefeated, too.
And yet, the Golden Gophers, who were at home, were a touchdown underdog. They were ranked No. 17 according to the first College Football Playoff rankings. Penn State? No. 4.

There wasn’t a ton of love for Minnesota prior to the game against the Nittany Lions. But then, the game actually happened.
And the Golden Gophers won. Sorry, doubters.
After the game, which ended with Minnesota fans storming the field, coach P.J. Fleck stormed into his locker room. What did he do?
He jumped. He jumped into his teammates arms and he went on to crowd surf.

You have got to feel good if you’re Fleck right now. You just signed a seven-year extension at a place where you know you can beat elite teams. You literally just proved it.
Enjoy this one, Fleck. Hopefully the best is yet to come.
