A pair of historic wins led to hefty fines for Vanderbilt and Arkansas.

The Commodores knocked off then-No. 1 Alabama on Saturday while Arkansas took down then-No. 4 Tennessee. Those colossal upsets led to fans storming the field at their respective venues.

Per The Athletic's Seth Emerson, the field-stormings resulted in a $100,000 fine for Vanderbilt and a $250,000 fine for Arkansas. The Commodores were first-time violators while the Razorbacks are second-time offenders—their other offense being a court storming after a win over Duke basketball in 2023.

The fines will be paid to Alabama and Tennessee, respectively.
