THE STORY

In the 2019 Egg Bowl on November 28, Ole Miss wide receiver Elijah Moore scored a touchdown with four seconds remaining, bringing the Rebels within one point of Mississippi State. Moore celebrated by simulating a dog urinating in the end zone, resulting in a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. The penalty moved the extra point attempt back 15 yards, and kicker Luke Logan missed the 35-yard kick, leading to a 21-20 loss for Ole Miss. (si.com)
