  The Sooners shocked the Crimson Tide on Saturday night, but had to pay a big price for fans entering the competition area in violation of SEC safety rules.

The Southeastern Conference (SEC) has imposed a $200,000 fine on the University of Oklahoma for fans storming the field after their football team's victory over Alabama. This incident occurred during Oklahoma's first season in the SEC, marking their inaugural game in the conference. The fine is part of the SEC's policy to discourage fans from rushing onto the field, which poses safety risks and disrupts the orderly conclusion of games. The Sooners' win against Alabama was a significant upset, leading to the exuberant reaction from the fans. This penalty reflects the SEC's strict enforcement of its field access policy, which has been in place to maintain order and safety at its member institutions' sporting events.
