On Sunday, the Southeastern Conference announced a $200,000 penalty for the Sooners due to breaches of the league's policy regarding access to competition areas. This includes a $100,000 fine for fans rushing the field before the game ended and another $100,00 for the post-game rush.

Oklahoma becomes the third university this season to face fines related to field-rushing incidents against Alabama, joining Vanderbilt and Tennessee. Collectively, these three universities have contributed almost half a million in fines to Alabama after a win that prompted fans to rush the field.

Moreover, this marks the 10th instance in history where a team has been fined for celebrating a win over the Crimson Tide, further solidifying Alabama's status as the most rushed team in the league.
