Actor and comedian Jason Sudeikis pulled out the ‘you can’t see me’ sign after Iowa and Caitlin Clark defeated LSU to advance to the Final Four on Sunday. Sudeikis was seen in the crowd alongside director Ezra Eddleman and appeared happy with the result as the Hawkeyes advanced.

Sudeikis, who is a noted women’s basketball fan at both the college and pro level, could be seen waving his hand in front of his face and laughing postgame. Of course, Clark made the move, which originated from WWE wrestler John Cena, famous after defeating Louisville to reach the Final Four in 2023. You can view the moment below.

LSU star Angel Reese gave Clark a taste of her own medicine last season by copying her “you can’t see me” hand movement after the Tigers won the national championship over Iowa in 2023.

Of course, it would be Clark and the Hawkeyes who got the last laugh this time around as she scored 41 points in the 94-87 win. It seems Jason Sudeikis certainly enjoyed the Iowa win and we’ll see whether they can complete the journey and cut down the nets to win it all.

One of Sudeikis’ most popular characters he has portrayed is Ted Lasso, an American football coach who takes over a Premier League soccer team despite having never coached the sport. It’s fitting that he’s come to be such a recognizable name in the sports world as well and Sunday was yet another example.

Caitlin Clark puts on a clinic to lead Iowa to Final Four

Records weren’t the only thing that fell at the hands of Caitlin Clark on Monday evening. The Iowa star put on another classic to take down defending national champion LSU, the very team she lost to in the title game last season, 94-87.

Clark led the Hawkeyes with 41 points (13-of-29 FG) and 12 assists, becoming the NCAA Tournament’s all-time leader both 3-pointers and assists. More importantly, she punched the program’s second straight Final Four appearance and is now only two wins away from its first national title.

As has become customary for her, Clark came up clutch on several occasions Monday. Each time LSU seemed to come within striking distance, she had an answer. With the game tied coming out of halftime, Clark hit three 3-pointers within the first two-and-a-half minutes to allow the Hawkeyes to take the lead.

They never trailed again after that, though LSU would come as close as within seven points in the third quarter. However, Clark immediately stepped up to hit another 3-pointer to make it a double digit game again. She finished the game with nine total, six of which came in the second half.
