let’s take a look at the number of penalties called against visiting teams at each of those SEC stadiums from 2008 through 2012, listed from best to worst:

School Home Games Opp. Total Penalties Opp. Avg. Penalties / Home Game
Texas A&M 34 251 7.38
Missouri 31 212 6.83
Arkansas 32 218 6.81
Miss. State 33 223 6.75
Vanderbilt 32 202 6.31
Florida 35 215 6.14
LSU 36 209 5.80
Kentucky 35 200 5.71
Alabama 35 196 5.60
Tennessee 37 207 5.59
Ole Miss 35 188 5.37
Auburn 37 192 5.18
S. Carolina 35 180 5.14
Georgia 31 159 5.12

let’s compare the two tables above to see which schools have gotten the biggest advantage in terms of home-game penalties over the past five seasons:

School Avg. Penalties / Home Game Opp. Avg. Penalties / Home Game Penalty Diff. / Home Game
Miss. State 4.96 6.75 + 1.79
Missouri 5.51 6.83 + 1.32
Alabama 4.45 5.60 + 1.15
Kentucky 4.65 5.71 + 1.06
Texas A&M 6.61 7.38 + 0.77
Ole Miss 4.74 5.37 + 0.63
Vanderbilt 5.68 6.31 + 0.63
Arkansas 6.21 6.81 + 0.60
Tennessee 5.75 5.59 – 0.16
S. Carolina 5.37 5.14 – 0.23
LSU 6.41 5.80 – 0.61
Auburn 6.08 5.18 – 0.90
Florida 7.28 6.14 – 1.14

So what you have blatantly pointed out with these numbers is that put of the big 6 only Alabama sits with a + differential in penalties. Hmmmm that's interesting.
