Didn't notice this during the game, but on Pierson-El's punt return TD when he raises his hand at about the 20 yd line is that something that could potentially be called unsportsmanlike under the new rules? Know it happened to the LSU punter a year or so ago but wasn't sure how blatant the "taunting" had to be.

 

 

I think there's a huge difference between those. The LSU punter high-stepped with his hand behind his head - it's something that you look at and realize was obviously a conscious and deliberate decision. Pointing a finger up is a pretty common and very natural motion in that kind of a context - if a ref wanted to be a piece of trash he could call it but I doubt any would.

 

I don't think it should've been flagged. Was more of a question about whether or not under the rules could it have been. The kids need to have a little more freedom when it comes to this kind of thing. Don't taunt the other team or fans and all should be well.
