WATCH: Marquette forward David Joplin ejected for flagrant two foul on Notre Dame's Nate Laszewski

The Marquette Golden Eagles took care of business in handling the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Sunday afternoon. The Golden Eagles won the game by double digits and didn’t have to sweat anything down the stretch. But that doesn’t mean the game was played without controversy. There was a controversial flagrant two foul assessed on Marquette forward David Joplin, when there was some contact made between Joplin and Notre Dame forward Nate Laszewski on a screen. Joplin ended up accidentally making contact with Laszewski’s family jewels when the two made contact. He was clearly in pain and on the ground. But the contact definitely looked like an accident.

Check out the play here and decide for yourself.

It’s definitely pretty surprising that Joplin was ejected on the play. That seems like a pretty liberal interpretation of a flagrant two foul, but that’s what the referees decided after an official review. Marquette won the game, 79-64.
