Why the difference in the fines the two schools received?

Im sure UK wouldn't mind paying more fines as long as they are winning games and putting huge crowds in the stands.

Yeah, an alumni or two can just write a check!

Mississippi State received a $25K find 2 or 3 years ago. UK's last fine for rushing the field was much longer ago.

Why we rush the field because of a win on an unranked team that might not make a bowl is beyond me.

It's called Big Blue Fever...catch it!!

Confused

nicker:

I would imagine the BBN fans are encouraged and thrilled that their team has an opportunity to be bowl eligible. Add that to the fact that recruiting is going well, and it would appear that we are just getting better and better!

I know that to you, a snide little sarcastic ass, it doesn't seem worth it, yet it was to hundreds, maybe even thousands, of fans on Saturday!

I agree with GB, SC was ranked in the top 10 a couple weeks ago and they have been a top tier SEC team for the past 5 or 6 years not to mention they have a HOF coach that has broke it off in us countless times over the years! Hats off to the loyall fans that chose to rush out there and enjoy the moment........

S.C. Was horribly overrated . Their QB is just average. They will end up a .500 team.

It reeks of desperation. If it were Alabama....yea. I could see it. UK fans ripped Indiana for storming the court after beating UK in basketball when UK was ranked number one. Really? And the T-shirts? 3-3 and unranked?

Got to enjoy your successes

I agree with your assessment of the QB, but then, after Connor Shaw who wouldn't look "just average".

I don't think it even points to desperation. To me, it's more of a support and pride issue. UK has an amazing fan base that has waited a long time for a football team worthy of them. JMO

Due to the fact our athletic department generates millions and millions, 25k is like a $50 fine to us. Have another 25k ready because if we beat Miss St or Georgia we will storm the field again without thought.
