What is the deal with your team dancing around and hooting and hollering all the time like they are locking up the super bowl? I understand celebrating a td and all, but when you are losing, and have won 2 games all season, you would think at some point, the dancing on the sidelines would stop and they would focus on the game more.

Does the coach not have control over his team anymore?

Thoughts?

Who cares. Dancing is the least of our problems.

Not sure if you are trolling them but I imagine it's a combination of nothing else to celebrate due to the amount of losses as a program and some coaches like their players to celebrate while others restrain it.

I don't know man... I can't fault kids looking for a chance to celebrate something when they are having a tough season or tough college career.

I think everything we do is magnified. I have ESPN3 and watch a crap ton of football and I see a lot of kids dancing, I have more of an issue with Bobby Baker's deliberate shove out of bounds that cost us half the distance to the goal and likely the game.

Tough season(s), chance to win over a good opponent.

They're going to get excited.

Emotion is a good thing.

Saw that, was a very, very poor decision.

Our team dances at kickoff and on the sidelines after every score and on 3rd downs. Of course, we're 8-0 and one of the more dominant teams in college football...but that's still our culture.



It not only keeps our fans and players hyped, but it also rattles the opposing team, especially when we have the lead.

Hooray, the fun police are here

I don't see how dancing or celebrating in a tight game would be a problem. Celebrating and jawing when you're down by 20 plus points however, seems just a little ridiculous. We've seen that from a few teams this year, including Georgia Southern.

Yep... that would be Ellison.

I love it when a cornerback stands over a guy he just tackled, and bangs his chest to show his superiority then trots off the field with his team down 44-3.

I wasn't gonna call him out by name, but... yep.

I've personally had issues with it when we were up by 40, not just the App game.

I was thinking the exact same thing, but that .gif was perfect.
