MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The University of Mississippi has been issued a hefty fine of $350,000 after fans rushed the field following a win against the University of Georgia this past weekend. The Southeastern Conference announced that the school will have to pay a $250,000 fine for its second offense of the league's current policy against fans entering the field during a game. The first offense under the current policy was in September 2023, following a University of Mississippi victory against LSU.

For the safety of participants and spectators alike, at no time before, during or after a contest may spectators enter the competition area.” A third violation of the policy could result in a $500,000 fine. No. 16 UM toppled No. 2 Georgia in a 28-10 win in Oxford, Miss. on Saturday. Exhilarated fans rushed the field with only 16 seconds left on the clock, but officials forced the fans off the field to finish the game. Once the game was officially over, fans once again stormed the field. Fans were also seen climbing on the goalposts, ripping them down, and walking them out of the stadium. For conference contests, fines for violating the access to competition area policy are paid to the opposing institution.
