In news that will surely delight old-school football fans and wreck havoc on taunting your opponent in football video games, the NCAA is considering a rule change that would impose harsher penalties on celebration.

Currently, post-touchdown celebrations are assessed as dead-ball fouls. Under the proposed change, these would become live-ball penalties if the scoring player began taunting before reaching the end zone.

This is not a formal proposal and wouldn't take effect for at least two years, rules chairman Mike Bellotti said.
