Don’t worry. The Vols won’t have any reason to do that.

We have stormed the field many times for many teams because it's fun.


No, you guys have stormed the field cause you never have a good team, so when you win a big game, you feel the need to storm the field cause it's an upset. If you were a better program, then you'd storm the field hardly ever.

How would a georgia fan know? Y'all are too afraid to play A&M at Kyle Field. A&M has an all-time record of 3-3 against Georgia. Never once have they played in Kyle Field.

Why would anyone storm the field at Texas A&M?

His sissy arse will be here shortly to hem and haw over the 12 kids who ran onto the field after we beat Auburn at Legion Field in 1990.

Alabama fans say they've never rushed the field, we looked into it

quote:

Alabama football slipped far from the early success of Wallace Wade and Frank Thomas to the point of a 19-game winless streak from 1954-1956. So while a 13-12 win over Mississippi State might not seem like much to celebrate today, the Denny Stadium homecoming crowd of 25,000 was apparently quite impressed. Photos from the next day’s Tuscaloosa News showed fans on the playing surface celebrating with players after chanting about wanting a new coach in the second quarter.
Bama fullback Don Kinderknecht gets a pummeling from some happy students …” read a photo caption on Page 5 of the Oct. 28, 1956 paper. 


quote:

And that led to one of the more notable fans-on-the-field moments in Alabama lore. Alabama had lost four straight Iron Bowls to Auburn from 1954-58 entering Bryant’s second year. A 10-0 Crimson Tide win sent the well-dressed fans past the Legion Field fences and toward the goalposts.
And, as the Huntsville Times front-page headline read, the fans weren’t exactly successful.
“Goals Prove Just As Tough As Tide Team: Fans Effort To Rip Goals Futile…,” the headline read above a story that led with “The Walls of Jericho came tumbling down, but not the goal posts at Legion Field.”


quote:

“From all directions they poured onto the field, milling with coaches and players, screaming and waving banners,” read the Nov. 29 story in The Birmingham News where a front-page photo showed fans sitting and straddling the crossbar. “Then a few of them rushed the north end zone goal posts and strained to rock them to earth. A few were quickly joined by a throng. And when they couldn’t remove the cemented posts, they scampered up the crossbar, cheering, swimming and going mad with sheer delight.”

quote:

So a 16-7 Crimson Tide win lit a powder keg in the Alabama student section, and eventually, the Legion Field artificial turf. News accounts differed on numbers and video of the postgame wasn’t clear but Alabama students tried to rush the field as the game ended and Birmingham police officers were there to greet them.
“I saw several of them swinging billy clubs,” Alabama student Harold Lambert, then 24, told The Birmingham News. “One cop was swinging back and forth as hard as he could at anybody he could. They were swinging wildly. One of the officers pulled his gun out. He pulled it out and was waving it. They were out of control.”

So they didn't rush the field.

Cool. Thanks for confirming what we all knew already.

ETA: Wait, you actually spent money to read a "gotcha article" behind a paywall that was written by a huge Auburn fan 4 years ago?



Jesus Christ. You're even more pathetic than I thought.

Re Ala and the ‘90 Iron Bowl, maybe 200 tried to jump the fence and rush the field. Half were handcuffed. It was a little over the top by the police.

I’m not sure that counts as storming the field but a few hundred did for sure.

So twelve people climbed the goal posts after failing to remove them.

Gee, I wonder why?

Perhaps it was because not enough people "stormed" the field to meet the requirements of storming the field?

This is storming the field:



This is not:

If you're too stupid to open it and too poor to pay for an account, I don't know what to tell you.
