The opponents kick Field Goals. How is this any different than a kid shooting free throws in a road game?

If true, that's dumb. That eagle is as SEC as any other mascot in the conference and one of the best traditions too.

It’s not a mascot and is a cheap parlor trick by the stadium to try and distract the kid. The difference between an away basketball game and that is the Jumbotron inside the arena isn’t displaying the video. The aren’t disallowing fans from making a distraction, just saying you can’t use the scoreboard to do so.

What about cowbells? Grown men and women barking like dogs or “calling the hogs”? We have fricking marching bands of 100+ kids banging drums and blowing horns.

It ought to be no holds barred aside from laser pointers in a player’s eyes.

It shouldn't be distracting. It's a big arse target to aim for.

All fans.

Not during play

And it is for fans to do it. You’re just not allowed to do it as a school.

Why is it ok for MSU to clang those damn cowbells? It’s horrible and creates a redneck image for the SEC as well as MSU. If anyone tried ringing a cowbell in any other SEC stadium they would be kicked out of the place. Why does the SEC allow this obnoxious noise? Did MSU pay off someone in the SEC office? Makes you wonder

WTF.... what's next from the SEC, rules against throwing a player's shoe?? Oh wait, that's a penalty not an SEC rule.

So, what are they allowed to put on the scoreboard? It's right behind the uprights. Anything up there is gonna be distracting if that is considered distracting. What about a big picture of Cam Newton in a peacock hat smiling?

We actually just pawned our CWS trophy in exchange for 5 more sanctioned years of cowbell ringing.

This isn’t controversial at all. No different then them forcing bands or the PA systems to stop playing when a play is about to start.move your scoreboard higher and you can probably keep your eagle.
