Do they not call it anymore?

After lsu scores a td, lsu players start posing like they are taking a picture.

I know the nfl allows a lot of ignorance but thought that was still illegal in college.

I've seen it called once all season and that was in a Big 12 game. Seems to go uncalled in the SEC. Some of Bama's dances definitely would've drawn a flag ten years ago.

Simple. Don’t want to see them dance then keep them from scoring.

Good - that penalty should be reserved for clear taunting of the opponent.

If guys are just celebrating together in a positive way then have at it.

Well at some point can the “taking pictures” and posing in the end zone become taunting the entire opposing team?

I think it's usually pretty clear when you are directing whatever you are doing at another player or team, but I dunno. I'd prefer my guys not do any of that stuff.

Keeping from someone from not scoring obviously isn't easy. Every team scores. Following the rules especially this one should be easy. Just has to be enforced.

Yeah, me either. It just seems silly and tacky to me. Some people will say it’s just kids having fun but it just feels like taunting the opposing the other team, whether they are looking at them when they are doing it or not.

Yeah... my brother and I were floored a few games back when the runner scored ... and spiked the ball. But you can bet, the officials are looking for an Supremacist 'OK' symbol or throat cut.

I mean I'm fine with it but it's not a judgment call. It's a rule.

If they do away with the rule then so be it.

On the other hand I'm old school and like to see good sportsmanship. Try and kill em during plays, pick em up after the play is over.
