This rule wouldn't have affected the '07 dawg pile. They did that after they scored and were penalized for 2 personal fouls. My understanding is this rule is only for taunting during live action (high stepping into the endzone, pointing at the player, etc.) once you cross into the endzone, live action stops and it becomes a dead ball penalty. Am I missing something?

So many of these refs can't tell the difference between a taunt and a celebration. I'd say the 2007 Georgia end zone dance was definitely a collective taunt. Players should have been ejected for that. But just wait. Some player will thrust his fist in the air as he crosses the goal line, with no opposing player in sight, and he'll be flagged for a taunt. This gives the refs way too much discretion, and credit. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

On SportsNation on ESPN just now.. they said the score will be negated for even high stepping into the end zone. Personally i think this rule is ridiculous... talk about nanny state. -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us Subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/gatortalk/subscribe?hl=en -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
