At a minimum you have a 15-yard USC foul against Red. Still Red's ball 1st and 10 at Blue 40. I'm interested to see what others say regarding Red's actions. You mentioned he stopped but didn't say how long he stopped for. I probably would have a hard time disqualifying the player since his actions weren't flagrant on the blue player as it sounds like a case of excessive celebration. But, at the same time you can't ignore the safety of your player. It's a weak argument to say he should have had his helment on before he left the team box so hopefully no one used that argument. He should however. It's possible though as I started to say, it's possible you may have a 2nd USC on that same Red player in which case he would be DQ'd for 2 USCs in the same game. I think that depends if he stopped long enough to be considered a 2nd celebration, and therefore, a 2nd flag. I'm interested to see what others would say on this. Tough call.
