Missouri has touchdown taken away for excessive celebration (Video)

Missouri had little difficulty scoring during their season opener against Missouri State, but one of their touchdowns was taken off the board due to excessive celebration.

During Saturday’s game, Tigers running back Damarea Crockett was on his way to a sure touchdown when he left his feet and dove for the end zone. Unfortunately, the score did not count and Crockett picked up a 15-yard penalty as a result.
