SEC Fines Texas and Tennessee for Fan Misconduct

News summary

The SEC has fined the University of Texas $250,000 after fans threw objects at Georgia players during a 30-15 loss, urging the university to identify those responsible and warning of potential suspension of alcohol sales privileges. Similarly, the University of Tennessee faces a $100,000 fine for fans storming the field following a 24-17 victory over Alabama, as per the SEC's revised policy on access to competition areas. This recent violation marks Tennessee's first offense under the new policy, although fines are now paid to the opposing team, Alabama. Both incidents highlight ongoing challenges in maintaining sportsmanship and safety standards at high-stakes collegiate games. The SEC Commissioner emphasized the importance of upholding game management and sportsmanship policies across all SEC events. These fines reflect the SEC's commitment to enforcing its revised regulations, which increasingly hold universities accountable for their fans' conduct.
