First, let’s start with the home numbers, from best to worst:



School Home Games Total Penalties Avg. Penalties / Home Game
Alabama 35 156 4.45
Kentucky 35 163 4.65
Ole Miss 35 166 4.74
Miss. State 33 164 4.96
S. Carolina 35 188 5.37
Missouri 31 171 5.51
Vanderbilt 32 182 5.68
Tennessee 37 213 5.75
Auburn 37 225 6.08
Arkansas 32 199 6.21
LSU 36 231 6.41
Georgia 31 200 6.45
Texas A&M 34 225 6.61
Florida 35 255 7.28



Now, a look at the number of penalties totaled by each squad in road (or neutral site) games from 2008 through 2012, from best to worst:



School Road Games Total Penalties Avg. Penalties / Road Game
Alabama 33 139 4.21
Missouri 34 172 5.05
Kentucky 28 150 5.35
Vanderbilt 31 174 5.61
Miss. State 30 170 5.66
Tennessee 25 143 5.72
S. Carolina 31 186 6.00
LSU 30 194 6.46
Auburn 27 175 6.48
Ole Miss 28 182 6.50
Arkansas 31 222 7.16
Georgia 36 267 7.41
Florida 32 248 7.75
Texas A&M 30 233 7.76

Four schools have actually been penalized more at home — on average — over the past five years than they have been at home: Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Alabama and Missouri.

No SEC school over the last five seasons has had a better homefield advantage in terms of its own penalties than… Ole Miss.

I'm flabbergasted that Bama has the least penalty yardage in both categories. Flabbergasted.

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
Georgia 6.45 5.12 – 1.33

How many penalties are called on your team doesn't mean much. It's the differential between how many are called on you versus your opponent.

EDT: thanks... but why did you just do home games?

This is also a bit misleading. A well timed penalty can change the outcome of games. Call all the penalties on one team when it don't matter, but save the ONE penalty for the team you want to screw. Voila!!!

For some reason, UF/FSU/Miami are always among the most penalized teams in the country.

All I see is that Alabama has the least amount of penalties in the SEC, whether they're at home or away.

Meanwhile, you can watch them and see one uncalled penalty after another. Still, props for the spin doctoring of the data

Actually, Lsu had less calls on the road. It's just the ones they did get, were dirty and resulted in more yardage.
