What we wanted to get to this time, Ross was, there was a lot of fines handed out by the SEC.

Last week, Tennessee got fined 100 grand for fans storming the field.

Texas was fined 250,000 for fans throwing bottles on the field.

And it, this goes to that little rule, money rule.

They came up with where the fine goes to the opposing team.

Correct.

Right.

Yeah, they made that change, uh, at spring meetings, I think back in May Pats written a lot about this issue, the field storming.

Um and they, they decided that this would be one of the incentives to get schools, uh to, to protect the field better and to secure the field and prevent field, storming or at the very least get the visiting team off the field in the staff before the field is storm.

So this year so far, I think it's $950,000 have been, have been fined.

So.

Right, right.

At about a million dollars, 250,000 for Arkansas's uh, storming against Tennessee.

Tennessee will get, get that money, obviously, 250,000 for LSU storming in the uh win the overtime win over Ole Miss.

So that money goes to the rebels.

And then as you mentioned, $100,000 for Vandy, that that will go to Alabama and then $250,000 for Texas for throwing things on the field.

I am uncertain that's not in the field storming, you know, provision.

So I don't, I don't think that Georgia gets that money, but I guess I'm not, I'm not completely sure uh on that, but the hope is that, um being able thinking that your, your opponent is gonna get, get that money.

The thinking is that, um, you know, it, prevent, prevent more of this, uh Dan from, from uh from happening if you do the math.

Um, you know, I think I was trying to do it in my head because Tennessee got the 250,000 from Arkansas, but also cut into that 100,000 which they're sending it to, to Alabama.

Alabama got 100,000 from Vanny.

So Alabama's up 200,000 and Alabama's up 200 1000 LSU and Ole Miss is up 250,000 from the, from the LSU win.

So, yeah, I was gonna say Vandy, it's like Venmo at the like uh the golf club like you bet you, you owe me 100 you owe me two back and forth.

Alabama's paying for three new recruiting analysts with that.

So that's good for them.
