A few hours after LSU was fined $100,000 by the SEC for storming the field following the Tigers' 36-16 win against No. 2 Georgia, U.S. Rep. Garret Graves came up with a way to help.

Graves created a GoFundMe account Monday (Oct. 15) to raise $100,000 to pay for LSU's fines.

In just five hours, the account raised $1,967 and counting.

"LSU is an inclusive community," the post said. "And we love our D1 sports! When 102,000 of us get together, we celebrate - and when we do, we leave nothing on the field.
