Desmond King has had finer moments.

The Iowa cornerback and reigning Jim Thorpe Award winner was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct in the first quarter after getting into a dust-up with a Michigan player.

Apparently King wasn’t too happy about it:

That would appear like double birds from the All-American. Were they directed at Michigan or the refs?

Whatever the case, King certainly wasn’t in positive spirits after that. Iowa did get a bit of a spark after that play.

Iowa might not a lot more dirty birds to hang with No. 3 Michigan.
