New NCAA football rules for taunting

Starting in the 2011 season, the rules will be different for a player who is penalized for taunting on his way to the end zone — stuff like high-stepping, diving when no defender is around or pointing at the other team.
As it is, those penalties are worth 15 yards on the extra point attempt, the 2-point conversion or the ensuing kickoff.
In 2011, the penalty will be enforced at the spot of the foul, which means the touchdown will be wiped out.

  1. The first referee that calls back a game winning TD for a celebration will be the first football ref ever to be killed 'Soccer Riot' style.
