If that was what the flag was for

Then it is yet another example of the stupidity of celebration rules.
In that case, anything other than directly taunting the opponent or removing your helmet should be allowed. There is zero harm in a player celebrating a play in that instance. It doesn't slow the game down in any discernible way. It's stupid to penalize players in the excitement of the game. That is the very stuff that makes college football so awesome.
And in this case it was a potentially huge penalty. Had they recovered the onside kick they would've had at least a chance at a very long FG for the win.
Dumb rule and dumb application of the rule.

I believe the ref actually announced the penalty

was on the Clemson bench. Some might have run onto the field.

IF that's the case, then it is more understandable.

If you weren't involved in the play, and there's time on the clock, you can't enter the field.
Though, to be honest, I'd like to see discretion there if it didn't hold up the game.

Ten bucks and a cold beer says that it was a bench penalty..

the entire bench emptied 10 yards out on to the field after we stopped the 2 pt. conversion. Everyone in the stands thought it was against the bench. I don't think it had anything to do with Ben and excessive celebration or taunting.

I actually saw that Boulware tripped.

Its really funny when u watch the replay. Boulware did exactly what he said he did on that 2point conversion play. Like i said in a previous post, he hit the RB so hard he lifted him off his feet and certainly made a "wall" so the QB couldn't get in. Boulware is the type of player that really motivates other players on our team with how fearless he is. Love that guy

Boulware is just an all around great guy

He is in on every play, never takes one off & a total nightmare for the opposing offense! Every time you see him on the field he is moving & giving 200% on every snap. Wish we could have him on defense every yr.

Look, I get it. We don't want to become like pro football and celebrate every tackle or first down like it's the Superbowl, but let's be rational in the interpretation. Perhaps over-the-top Taunting could be 15 yards and Celebrating should be just 5 yards.

Too logical and far too complicated. Ron Cherry could never keep them straight.

My take away from this is that I hope and pray we stay an underdog and nobody talks about us and we stay on upset alert. It makes the team p!ssed off and I think we are enjoying this p!ssed off defense. They are a gauntlet for any team to go up against. Stay p!ssed! Stay underdogs!
