After a wild 1990s the ncaa got real serious about celebrating on the field.
"College football, governed by the NCAA also penalizes excessive celebrations with a 15-yard penalty. NCAA Football Rule 9-2, Article 1(a)(1)(d) prohibits "Any delayed, excessive, prolonged or choreographed act by which a player (or players) attempts to focus attention upon himself (or themselves)"; in addition, Rule 9-2, Article 1(a)(2) asserts that "After a score or any other play, the player in possession immediately must return the ball to an official or leave it near the dead-ball spot."[4] Additionally, if a player's actions are considered "unsportsmanlike conduct" the result is dead-ball foul; a "flagrant unsportsmanlike conduct" foul requires player ejection."
Seems strange that coach and reporters are celebrating these multiple celebrations and to me just a little more than a tad unsportsmanlike for a major team to be doing all this excessive celebration against no-opponent puff opponent, SEMO.

"K-State football had a series of laughable celebrations after big plays in the team’s week one win."
"As for Howard and Gillum’s celebration expressing their love of cold beverages… the quarterback says it was all his center’s idea."
Could be they didn't understand "choreographed".
“It probably wasn’t the most appropriate thing to do,” K-State offensive lineman Cooper Beebe said with a smile. “[Offensive coordinator Collin] Klein definitely let us know about it… but it’s fun watching dudes celebrate. We just got to do it at the right time so it doesn’t hurt the team in the long run.”'
I could be wrong as I didn't watch, but 4 penalties for a total of 36 yards probably doesn't include 3 15 yarders for celebration.
Illegal or not, all this celebration in a win over SEMO seems petty and small.
