Quinton Flowers scores a TD, then celebrates with a NSFW hand gesture
Your move, Baker Mayfield.
USF QB Quinton Flowers has been otherworldly in the biggest game of his college career. But after a late third-quarter TD he celebrated in a decidedly Baker Mayfield style.

Mayfield has taken the ire of much of the college football world thanks to this move last week against Kansas.
That became such a big deal that the Big 12 conference office issued a public reprimand from commissioner Bob Bowlsby that read, in part:
“Mr. Mayfield’s actions are unacceptable and should not be tolerated,” said Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby. “I am grateful for the efficient management of this matter by the coaches and administration of the University of Oklahoma.
Athletes get emotional, and then do emotional things. Neither actions are great looks, but nobody’s committing a crime or an act of violence. It is not the end of the world despite what people will say online with the #classy hashtag.
People will be upset and Flowers will likely have to issue an apology after the game, but if USF can pull off the win over UCF, that’s what we’ll remember from Black Friday in Orlando.
