per Fox Sports:

Late in the fourth quarter of Minnesota's win over Illinois on Saturday, the senior linebacker crept into a passing lane and picked off quarterback Cam Thomas at the 30-yard line. Celestin followed a group of blockers into the end zone for his first collegiate touchdown and immediately pointed up to the sky to honor his father, who passed away in April. The pick-six, which head coach P.J. Fleck coined “something spiritual, something of a higher power,” clinched the 24-17 win over Illinois, good for Fleck’s first Big Ten win since taking over the Minnesota sideline. Celestin has been outstanding all year for the 4-3 Gophers. He ranks second in total tackles (52) with 4.5 tackles for loss and a sack.
