I have no idea how the hell she did that, but that’s one of the craziest goals that I’ve ever seen in my life.
That’s the kind of goal that will be talked about for the next 25 years.
BACK TO BACK NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!

I would love to know whether or not that was an accident. I’m sure the story going forward will be that it was done on purpose.
How could you say any different? At the same time, I’m not sure how anyone could pull that off on purpose.
Six. Time. National. Champions. ????

Either way, Wisconsin has another national title banner to raise in Madison.
