As anticipated, the Volunteers have been fined for multiple SEC violations following the school’s upset over the Crimson Tide
The Vols solidified themselves as a true national championship contender after dispatching the Crimson Tide for the first time in 15 years.
Following the last-second field goal by senior kicker Chase McGrath, chaos ensued as fans poured onto the field to celebrateThe school incurred a fine of $100,000 from the conference for a violation of the league’s “access to competition area” policy. The fine is the second such offense that Tennessee’s committed, with the last violation taking place after a basketball game against Florida in 2006.
Per the SEC, the policy states that “access to competition areas shall be limited to participating student-athletes, coaches, officials, support personnel and properly-credentialed individuals at all times. For the safety of participants and spectators alike, at no time before, during or after a contest shall spectators be permitted to enter the competition area. It is the responsibility of each member institution to implement procedures to ensure compliance with the policy.
