Auburn fined $250K for fans storming field

Ouch...

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Worth it

 

[Jax_Vol]

If I were Auburn, I would mail them a check for $500k. That will take care of 2021 as well

Couch change

It's entirely worth it

And each of the fans has to go to Tuscaloosa and personally apologize to Lil Nick for the 'unfairness' of it all..

That's probably true but hilarious any way .

This is about as asinine of a rule that there is. The SEC is the only conference that does everything possible to take the enjoyment out of the game. Other schools and conferences do it all the time and there are very few injuries that take place. But considering the SEC view on credible officiating I can see where this might consider this their standard.

iirc the Big 12 is starting it also Big 12 reprimands Kansas, Kansas State, TCU for field storming

When Tennessee finally beats Alabama the fans will storm the field also and Tennessee will get fined a ton also

 

[VolNExile]

I assume that the SEC receives the fine money?

Auburn stormed the field after beating a team playing their back up QB. Pretty fu-king sad to me.

Beating Alabama is a huge thing for Auburn and it's a thing where storming the field is entirely fitting

All of this. And I will be one of them.

When Boston College beat No. 1 Notre Dame in South Bend I was there and my brother was playing for BC. My mother stormed the field in her beaver fur. So worth it. (No PETA hate)

 

[MemphisVol77]

Ouch! Looks like that girl hurt herself.

Lol. The goal post would come down in Neyland IF Tennessee ever beats Bama again.

 

[Dudleys87]

A silly fine.

They may have to play the next weeks game on a neutral site if Tennessee beats Bama

A year of bragging rights

Nxt time you see a Bama fan just mention the kick six and watch their face change

 

[Boca Vol]

It was #15 vs. #5. Not storm worthy, IMO. Gives too much credit to their rival.

Nick complaining about fairness is like Stalin bitching about collectivism.

I hate Georgia.

That is all.

Did the chick who got stuck in hedges also get fined?

I suspect this is more to insulate the SEC from potential lawsuits stemming from possible injuries. At least the SEC can claim they have instituted a rule with a substantial penalty.
