South Carolina Fined for Field Storming After Tennessee Game, With Vols Receiving Payment
South Carolina has received a large fine after its fans stormed the field following the Gamecocks' game against Tennessee, according to Rocky Top Insider. The penalty stems directly from that postgame scene, with the field storming triggering the punishment.
Tennessee is set to be paid as part of the process. That puts the Volunteers on the receiving end of the consequences even though the incident involved South Carolina's home crowd and the celebration that followed the game.
No amount for the fine was provided in the material available for this report, and no additional details about the game itself were included. What is clear is that the response centers on the field storming, and that Tennessee benefits financially from the penalty imposed on South Carolina.
