SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey has issued the following statement:
"There is no place in college football for the kind of incident that took place at halftime of the Missouri at Florida game Saturday night. Everyone involved is responsible for meeting sportsmanship standards throughout each game. Running on the field to confront a game official, the gathering of teams in an on-field confrontation and student-athletes throwing punches are all disappointing at any time, but even more so as we work to support healthy competition during a pandemic."
Florida head coach Dan Mullen has been issued a reprimand by the Southeastern Conference and fined $25,000 for violating SEC Bylaws governing sportsmanship following Saturday's football game between the University of Missouri and University of Florida.
Fines levied against schools and individuals in the Conference are directed into a fund supporting the SEC's post-graduate scholarship program. Immediately following the altercation on Saturday, Florida defensive lineman Zach Carter and linebacker Antwuan Powell were ejected for the remainder of the game for fighting and Missouri outside linebacker Tre Williams was ejected for a flagrant unsportsmanlike conduct foul.
According to NCAA Football Playing Rule 9.5.1.b., ejections for fighting carry an automatic half-game suspension for the succeeding game which will result in Carter and Powell serving suspensions for the first half of Florida's game against Georgia in Jacksonville on Saturday.
In addition, following video review of the incident, the SEC Office has issued a half-game suspension for Missouri linebacker Chad Bailey, offensive lineman Dylan Spencer and defensive lineman Markell Utsey for fighting action during the altercation. Each will miss the first half of Missouri's game vs. Georgia on November 14 which follows a Missouri open date on November 7.
Fighting is defined as follows by NCAA Playing Rules:
RULE 2, SECTION 32. Fighting
ARTICLE 1. Fighting is any attempt by a player, coach or squad member in uniform to strike an opponent in a combative manner unrelated to football.
Such acts include, but are not limited to:
a. An attempt to strike an opponent with the arm(s), hand(s), leg(s) or foot (feet), whether or not there is contact.
b. An unsportsmanlike act toward an opponent that causes any opponent to retaliate by fighting (Rules 9-2-1 and 9-5-1-a-c).

Mullen instigated a fight on the field and got fined the same amount Lane Kiffin got for retweeting a fan

Lane Kiffin is sitting there like

I wonder how much the fine would be if Kiffin retweeted something about Mullen's fine?

Just turned on tweet notifications for Lane Kiffin for the day.

Imagine thinking what Kiffin tweeted is even close to as dumb as this.

Mullen starts the fight by running on the field like a psycho and he gets ZERO suspension but the Tigers get more players suspended against Georgia than good own team will.
SEC going to SEC.

Not having Carter in the first half will hurt our run defense for sure. Hopefully Moon and I guess Dexter can hold their own. At least he will be fresh for the third quarter. Powell isn't much of a loss.

So frick tweeting about the refs, just run out and yell at them and the opposing players instead.
Your move, Kiffin.
Your move, Kiffin.

Georgia is the real winner here. We are the next opponent of both teams.

Start a 200-man brawl... $25K
Dont wear a mask that when literally everyone on the field has already tested negative... $100K and the SEC leaks info to MSESPN.
Seems like the conference really has its priorities in order!

Your DC should've been fined too. He was the one talking shite to Mullen.

Is this new?
So if a player smacks a guy in the helmet for running his mouth, they can suspend the recipient for inciting a fight?
How do they prove this?

Yea.
Not to mention a Missouri player(90) literally punched his coach(the large black guy in the middle of it) three times in the back like a moron. He was trying to punch Slaton but was not even close.

Embarrassingly dump of Mullen.

#90 was swinging like a drunken teenage girl.
Deserves to be suspended more than anyone.

Pretty horse crap fine for all of the things Mullen did. SEC tucked their tail between their legs on this one.
