Pac-12 fines WSU $25,000 for field rush against Oregon

The Pac-12 has a little rule that says fans aren’t allowed to rush the field, and multiple infractions can incur up to a $25,000 fine, if the conference so chooses. According to Theo Lawson of the Spokesman-Review, it appears the league has exercised that right after Martin Stadium fans stormed the field following the Washington State Cougars’ win over the Oregon Ducks:

We all knew this was a possibility after the game, since WSU had rushed the field last year after beating USC. And I’m sure there’s not a damned one of us that cares one iota about the stupid fine — it’s not our $25,000 being sent to help offset the mortgage payment at Larry Scott’s albatross of a league office.
