The announcers mentioned it not being able to be egregious, but when the SEC official said it was the correct call, they posted the written rule on screen and it said nothing about having to be egregious.
It was a taunt, even if the simplest kind. I took it as looking over at the Florida players and saying, look at me, I'm running free and you can't get me.

Penalizing it isn't that uncalled for, but taking the TD off the board is like trying to kill an ant with a bazooka. Just complete overkill and frustrates the hell out of me no matter what the score.

Here is the official NCAA rule word for word
As stated, if what Wing did is taunting, Jesus; there are dozens of plays every game that are way worse that go uncalled. Also note Kellen Moore's Six Shooters are specifically against the rule, lol.
The excessive part under (d) is what the announcer was talking about when he said it has to be egregious.

Unsportsmanlike Acts
ARTICLE 1. There shall be no unsportsmanlike conduct or any act that interferes with orderly game administration on the part of players, substitutes, coaches, authorized attendants or any other persons subject to the rules, before the game, during the game or between periods. Infractions for these acts by players are administered as either live-ball or dead-ball fouls depending on when they occur.
a. Specifically prohibited acts and conduct include:
1. No player, substitute, coach or other person subject to the rules shall use abusive, threatening or obscene language or gestures, or engage in such acts that provoke ill will or are demeaning to an opponent, to game officials or to the image of the game, including but not limited to:
(a) Pointing the finger(s), hand(s), arm(s) or ball at an opponent, or imitating the slashing of the throat.
(b) Taunting, baiting or ridiculing an opponent verbally.
(c) Inciting an opponent or spectators in any other way, such as simulating the firing of a weapon or placing a hand by the ear to request recognition.

(e) An unopposed ball carrier obviously altering stride as he approaches the opponent’s goal line or diving into the end zone.
