Brown scored a wide-open 55-yard touchdown, and performed an odd celebration after entering the end zone.
The Kansa State receiver strolled in for the touchdown without any conflict, and he turned a blew a kiss to the opposing team’s cheerleaders.
Brown’s celebration got mixed reviews from college football fans, with many unable to decide if it was cool or inappropriate.
“Definitely a legend in the making!” one fan said.

“Kind of lame,” another fan said.
“I miss when athletes used to have class,” a third fan said.
“Shouldn’t be acting like that if you can’t win games,” a fourth fan said.
“Savage,” a fifth fan said.
Brown was not penalized for his celebration after scoring on the play.
Kansas State went on to win the game after Brown scored the touchdown, blowing out Oklahoma State 42-20.
Brown ended the day with 78 receiving yards and a touchdown.
The NCAA has been a bit harsher on celebrations this season, trying to limit the amount of taunting during games.
Most celebrations aren’t receiving flags, but many involving motions or symbols relating to guns are being flagged.
LSU’s Kyren Lacy was one of the players to be penalized for this kind of celebration.
Lacy made the motion of shooting a rifle toward an opposing player.

College football fans were overwhelmingly against the celebration performed by Lacy.
“Don’t think you can get dumber than Kyren Lacy after his celebration,” one fan said.
“Kyren Lacy would rather dance around like a fool than win the game. That 15 yard penalty just put USC in LSU territory. Well done,” another fan said.
“Kyren Lacy just scored an incredible TD against #USC and then decided that, in LAS VEGAS of all places, firing a pretend AR15 at the guy defending him, was a good idea. Stay classy #LSU Kids these days man,” a third fan said.
College football players mostly keep their celebrations tame, but there is always the threat of a penalty if they cross the line like Lacy did.
