The Southeastern Conference fined LSU $100,000 for fans rushing the field after the Georgia game on Saturday.

This is LSU's second offense under the current policy, which bans fans from entering the competition area. LSU fans last stormed the field at Tigers Stadium after the Ole Miss game in 2014.

$100,000 is 0.24% of LSU's annual revenue share from the SEC. This is chump change. Do it again.

I’ve never been a fan of storming the field as I think it makes LSU look like a podunk university that doesnt normally beat highly ranked teams, which we’ve beaten 3 top 10 teams this year alone, and so there’s that, and so that being said, fining an institution 100k for something so negligible is just another way for the SEC offices to make a buck. Gimme a break. This really didn’t hurt anyone, save perhaps LSU’s reputation as a big time program that’s been there done that.

They didn’t storm the field, they’re just not use to being there in the 4th qtr and didn’t know how to get out.

It is bull shite indeed, but my guess is that the SEC just withholds the money from LSU’s bowl cut.

This is such bullshite, it part of college football. What happens if we don't pay? Are they going to kick us out of the SEC?

I don't understand it either. If our fans storm the field and tear crap up, LSU has to pay for it.

That's a good question. What does happen if we refuse to pay? Forfeit win? Loss of scholarships? Bowl ban for a year? Worse officiating than we're already getting? Interest every year on top of the $100k? Going to withhold it from our SEC Network revenue check?
