Yes. Nubs accused Sparty of it earlier this year (clapping):

What does the NCAA rulebook say on pre-snap defensive regulations? Rule 7, Section 1, Article 5, Subpart A states: “No player shall use words or signals that disconcert opponents when they are preparing to put the ball in play. No player may call defensive signals that simulate the sound or cadence of (or otherwise interfere with) offensive starting signals. An official shall sound his whistle immediately.” Freep.com sent a request for clarification to Bill Carollo, the Big Ten’s coordinator of officials, and Big Ten spokesman Scott Chipman answered by noting that clapping is not specifically part of it. “In general,” Chipman said, “if a player is using words or signals to disconcert an opponent, there would be a warning and then a penalty if it continued.” -

This is probably a dumb question, but I will ask anyway:

Should AU not have been flagged for a false start since our offensive lineman were not set? I haven't had it in me to go back and watch the play, but I feel like some of our lineman were standing up turning towards the sideline when the ball was snapped.
