Somewhere Deion Sanders must be laughing his arse off about Wing being labeled a taunter!
That and about 80% of the people who scored Touchdowns in college football games on Saturday.

Wing and this play has gotten more exposure in the media because it was first play with new rule.
Seems funny that with all of the games that have been played this season, that Wing was the first player to taunt anybody.

I don't think I've ever seen it in an NCAA game, but there were two distinct unsportsmanlike acts on the play.
I have seen it happen on a lower level.

You felt that Wing outstretching his arms for literally one second was "taunting", and something worthy of eliminating the touchdown?

That I understand. The problem I have is that its a judgement call. Ill never forget those two crock of shite calls in Athens a couple years ago. The NCAA needs to eliminate judgement calls.

This. The rule only says that it's a taunt when it's "egregious". What exactly is that (defined as "outstandingly bad, shocking")? That's the issue. Most people saw Wing slightly raising his arms for a second as not really "outstandingly bad".

(e) An unopposed ball carrier obviously altering stride as he approaches the opponent's goal line or diving into the end zone.
Egregious in article, but not in rule?

The rule does not say anything about "egregious."

the egregious part was thrown in by Danielson, he said that is what the SEC has told their officials to use as the standard.

He could have easily picked up a second. The rulebook even goes to the trouble of including going into the crowd in the list of unsportsmanlike acts.
Les disagrees as to the bogus nature of the flag FWIW.
And I agree with you 100%, thank God I'm not an SEC official or I would likely have some internet whackjobs camping out at my house. It's amazing some of the pathetic shite that one can read online sometimes.

Adams of Arkansas did that vs Auburn on his 90+ yard run and it was not called.
The biggest issue is that the rule is another judgement call. It isn't like pass intereference of holding, but a play where a guy WILL score but a ref decides that he made a gesture that warrants a dead ball and a 15 yard penalty. If it can't be called all the time, then it shouldn't be in the rule book.

That's the worst part of the rule that could really come back on some team. Changing your stride like high stepping occurs naturally in many situations. And who the heck are you showing up if you dive into the end zone?

Only because he's being politically correct....and he in NO way ripped Wing on the sideline after the play.
As u stated earlier.....
