Here is the portion of the rulebook that is involved with the referees' interpretations of the players forming an 'O' with the gloves and showing it to the fans.

Letters (c) and (d) could possibly be considered for such actions, but that's really weak. Recognizing the cheering fans isn't 'inciting' them, and showing a team symbol isn't focusing attention on one's self.

NCAA.Rules.2010

Rule 9-2, Article 1.a

1. No player, substitute, coach or other person subject to the rules shall
use abusive, threatening or obscene language or gestures, or engage
in such acts that provoke ill will or are demeaning to an opponent, to
game officials or to the image of the game, including but not limited
to:

(a) Pointing the finger(s), hand(s), arm(s) or ball at an opponent, or
imitating the slashing of the throat.​

(b) Taunting, baiting or ridiculing an opponent verbally.

(c) Inciting an opponent or spectators in any other way, such as
simulating the firing of a weapon or placing a hand by the ear to
request recognition.

(d) Any delayed, excessive, prolonged or choreographed act by
which a player (or players) attempts to focus attention upon
himself (or themselves).

(e) An unopposed ball carrier obviously altering stride as he
approaches the opponent?s goal line or diving into the end zone.

(f) Removal of a player?s helmet before he is in the team area
(Exceptions: Team, media or injury timeouts; equipment
adjustment; through play; between periods; and during a
measurement for a first down).

(g) Punching one?s own chest or crossing one?s arms in front of the
chest while standing over a prone player.

(h) Going into the stands to interact with spectators, or bowing at the​
waist after a good play.

I'm really proud of the way JT got after it. We knew it was going to be a battle, but he attacked Rich Rod with great velocity.

I think Tress was channeling this:

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
