Since OU players may no longer be able to throw the "horns down" sign without being penalized, I've asked the Big 12 office for all taunting rules related to all teams. They haven't answered my request as of yet, but an anonymous former quarterback for my former high school team did send me a list of rules:
1) Players cannot throw the horns down sign. That's mean and makes Coach Herman sad. Also, all players, regardless of their team, are not allowed to refuse a congratulatory man-kiss from Coach Herman for the same reason.
2) Players cannot refer to OU as Gooners, Chokelahoma, Land Thieves, or any similar term. That's mean. Also, the mascots Boomer and Sooner, are not horse-pigs. Any such reference will result in a free touchdown.
3) OSU cannot be referred to as Pukes, Gaggies, Little Sister, or Booger Pickens U. Way too mean. Also Mike Gundy must trim his aggressive hair before every game, or forfeit his right to dance in the locker room.
4) Iowa State must remove the bird from the middle of the Cyclone logo. Not all birds identify as Cyclones. However, for those that do, this rule is an exception so as not to offend the pan-bird-cyclone group.
5) Baylor may no longer use the bear-claw gesture. That's scary.
6) Texas Tech may no longer use that pistols-guns up gesture. OSU does that and its copyrighted. Also, no more throwing tortillas. That's dangerous and could poke someones eye out. Also, tortillas don't grow on trees.
7) Kansas State is in the clear. Nothing interesting going on there.
8) Kansas, see rule 7.
9) TCU must change their mascot to just "Frogs" or something else more child-friendly. The addition of "Horned" is just too sexy and risque'.
10) The mascot for West Virginia can no longer wear a raccoon or beaver hat, whatever that thing is on his head. Animals are people too! A construction hat with a beer-bong attached is more appropriate (with non-alcoholic beer of course).
Play nice, people. What do you think this is... college football?
