How to Do Wavy Walk TD Celebration in College Football 26

Pulling off a standout touchdown in College Football 26 is always satisfying, but doing it with style? That's next level. Among the many celebration options in the game, the "Wavy Walk" is one of the cooler ones you'll want to master. Whether you're dominating in Dynasty, grinding for wins online, or just showing off after a big play, knowing how to hit the Wavy Walk will add flair to your end-zone moments.

Let's talk about getting that celebration right.

How to perform the Wavy Walk

The control input is straightforward once you know it, but timing is everything. After scoring a touchdown in College Football 26, wait for the camera to signal the "Celebrate" prompt, this means you're in the celebration window. Once you see that, perform the Wavy Walk using the right input. On console versions:

On PS5: Right Stick (RS) Down + Left Trigger (L2). 

On Xbox: Right Stick Down + Left Trigger (LT). 

That down-plus-trigger input calls the Wavy Walk animation. It's worth noting that some guides list it as RS Down + L2/LT for PS/Xbox respectively.

Timing and practice

You'll want to get the timing right so that your player actually executes the Wavy Walk rather than the standard celebration. After you cross the goal line, wait for the end-zone camera shift and the "Celebrate" label. Then input the RS Down + trigger motion within that window. If you act too early, the game might ignore your input and default to a simpler animation; too late, and you'll miss the special one entirely.

A good tip: once the ball is in the end zone and your player is slowing, prepare your thumbs on the right stick and trigger so you can flick down-and-press the trigger fluidly. Try a few times in casual match modes until you're comfortable. Once you've practiced, you'll be able to execute it seamlessly in higher stakes games without fumbling the moment.

When to use the Wavy Walk

The best times to trigger the Wavy Walk are after big plays that shift momentum. For instance:

After a long touchdown run where you broke multiple tackles.

When you sealed a fourth-quarter win with a score, and want to mark the moment.

When you've built a comeback and want to celebrate not just the score but the story.

Because the Wavy Walk takes a fraction of a second to initiate, don't attempt it right at the goal line where you risk being tackled before the animation starts. Instead, cross into the end zone, let the camera settle, then pull the input. That little pause ensures the animation triggers smoothly.

Final thoughts

In College Football 26, celebrations like the Wavy Walk aren't just gimmicks, they're part of the game's character. Once you've got the input down, Right Stick Down + Left Trigger (or LT), and you feel the timing, you'll be adding swagger to every end zone moment. All while you continue building your roster, managing your budget of College Football 26 Coins, and mastering the field. So next time you break free for a touchdown, don't just score, walk it out with style.

Now go hit the scoreboard, flick that stick down, hold the trigger, and let your avatar strut through the crowd with the Wavy Walk. You've earned it.
