The invasions of the land are no longer really popular in Ncaa. While they have long part of the folkore of the university championship, they are now fought, even downright prohibited by conferences.
Since 2023the SEC has installed a grid of fines when the fans rush on the ground.
However, this does not prevent supporters from the various universities (Kentucky, Tennessee, Texas, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Lsu, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Oklahoma …) to penetrate from time to time on the parquet or land after the games of their athletes, but the invoices accumulate after different directions.
HAS Vanderbiltit is starting to do expensive since college has just taken a third fine this season. First there was a punishment of $ 100,000 in October, when fans of the football team returned to the field after the victory against Alabama. Last week, a second fine of $ 250,000 fell while the spectators returned to the prosecution following the victory against Tennessee.
850,000 dollars in fines!
And this weekend, there was a third invasion of the field, during success against Kentucky. Result ? A third fine, This time $ 500,000. We therefore reach the $ 850,000 in penalties …
And each new invasion will now be penalized with a new fine of $ 500,000!
The director of the Sports Department of the Faculty has tried to prevent invasion, explaining that Nile money should allow to build a good team, and not to pay the fines. As for the coach, Mark Byington, he believes that it is because college is often “outsider” that fans over-elebrly the big success.
“There are important things that I would like to see here, and at some point, I would like us to be surprised, that we do not have the impression of being outsider in these matches, and that we approach them knowing that our program is good and that we expect to win ”he explained. “We are not there yet. So let the supporters take advantage of it. We may need to create a gofundme kitty or something like to pay fines. We will find a solution. »»
