No. 13 LSU and No. 20 Ole Miss got into a heated shootout on Saturday night in Oxford. It then ended with the Rebels scoring two touchdowns in the final five and a half minutes to win 55-49 over the Tigers.

That led to a field storming inside Vaught-Hemingway Stadium which, considering the energy of the game, made for a lot of mixing with players, coaches, staff, and fans. That included LSU DL Jacobian Guillory who, in a clip shared in the aftermath of the game, appeared to lose his temper on an Ole Miss fan who ran up to him on the field.

This is the type of interaction that the Southeastern Conference was hoping to avoid with its updated policies regarding access to the competition area. As of today, the SEC has since fined the Rebels a total of $100,000 for their first offense.

In the six-point loss, Guillory totaled two tackles for the Tiger defense.

All parties involved did some wrong amidst the field storm with the fans coming up to Guillory and Guillory obviously reacting in such a way. The question now is what punishment may be coming the way of the redshirt junior for the role he played in the incident.

SEC fines Ole Miss $100,000 for field storming following LSU win

Ole Miss defeated LSU 55-49 on Saturday night which saw Rebels fans rush the field after the exciting victory.

It’s coming at a cost, though, as the SEC has announced a $100,000 fine toward Ole Miss for the occurrence.

But, after that performance, who blames them?

The two teams put up a combined 1,343 total yards on offense while both quarterbacks, Jayden Daniels and Jaxson Dart, threw for 414 and 389 yards respectively along with eight combined touchdowns. If that wasn’t enough, both teams amassed at least 220 yards on the ground in what turned out to be one of the most exciting games of the weekend.

Winning the matchup for Ole Miss firmly inserts the Rebels back in the SEC West mix after losing 24-10 to Alabama last weekend.

For LSU, they drop to 3-2 but, thankfully for the Tigers, this is their first loss in conference play. In the standings, they’re one spot in front of the Rebels thanks to having one more game of conference action under their belt and sit at 2-1 instead of Ole Miss’ 1-1.

Still, Ole Miss fans were too busy celebrating the victory than worrying about specific standings and rankings.
