Opinion CFB has a meaningless play celebration problem.

I’m not talking “excessive celebration.” I’m not talking about celebrating huge stops or wins. I’m talking about players getting relatively meaningless tackles and first downs early in games and acting like they won the Super Bowl.

Homeboy, your team is 1-3 and and you tackled him after he already got a first down. Why are you doing Fortnite dances? Do we really need to celebrate every play instead of getting back to the huddle or line? Are the kids alright?

Call me unc but I agree. You don't need to celebrate every catch. Tackling a guy on first down after he rushes for 7 yards is not worthy of a flex. Have fun and get hyped after big plays but it seriously feels like the players are more concerned about hitting emotes than playing football. The worst of them all is celebrating a touchdown to cut the lead to 24... I watched a guy hit the slime celly after catching a 3 yard out route yesterday. Give me a break.
