George Kittle didn’t do much to cheer up Ricky Pearsall following his alma mater’s shocking NCAA tournament loss on Sunday.

Alvaro Folgueiras : 14 points on 3-5 shooting, 2-4 from 3, 6-6 from the FT line & 5 rebounds in 18 minutes off the bench George Kittle , an Iowa alum, poked fun at Ricky Pearsall, a Florida alum, following the Hawkeyes’ NCAA tournament win over the Gators on Sunday.

“Ope,” Kittle said in a caption on the image, “sorry.” When Pearsall responded with the fact that Florida won the national championship last year, Kittle replied with yet another jab.Kittle then went to the comment section of Pearsall’s most-recent Instagram post and added, “Go hawks.”For as much as Pearsall assuredly despised the smack talk, Kittle and the Hawkeyes certainly earned the right to dole it out. Iowa, a No. 9 seed, entered the contest as a 10.5-point underdog, yet used a last-second Alvaro Folgueiras 3-pointer to score arguably the biggest upset of the month so far. Up next for the Hawkeyes is a Sweet 16 tilt with Nebraska on Thursday, which means Niners Pro Bowler and Cornhusker alum Luke Gifford better be on high alert.Mets and Yankees about to find out if they can both be right about how to respond to 2025 failuresMeghan Markle and Prince Harry getting the cold shoulder from Montecito neighborsGeorge Kittle, an Iowa alum, poked fun at Ricky Pearsall, a Florida alum, following the Hawkeyes' NCAA tournament win over the Gators on Sunday.Stream It Or Skip It: 'The Forsytes' on PBS, a Bold New Take on a 'Masterpiece' Classic for the 'Bridgerton' Era
