"While we deeply appreciate the passion and loyalty of our fan base at the University of Texas Austin, we do not condone the unsportsmanlike conduct that was exhibited by some individuals throwing objects onto the field during last night's game and sincerely apologize to the University of Georgia players, coaches, and fans, as well as the Southeastern Conference and officiating crew," the statement, jointly released by Kevin Eltife, Jay Hartzell, and Chris Del Conte, said. "This type of behavior will not be tolerated." <figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=2URWZr_0wErwCWM00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2URWZr_0wErwCWM00" width="1200" height="800" ><figcaption>AUSTIN, TEXAS - OCTOBER 19: Texas Longhorns fans react after a pass interference call during the third quarter against the Georgia Bulldogs at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium on October 19, 2024 in Austin, Texas.

Texas has been hit with a $250,00 fine. It's a steep fine, but it's similar to the one programs receive when fans rush the field. It was ultimately a safety issue on Saturday night, as players, coaches and staff members could have been injured by the fans throwing garbage onto the field. Texas dropped to 6-1 on the year with Saturday's loss. <a href="https://thespun.com/nfl/denver-broncos/nfl-coach-diagnosed-with-cancer-at-35-years-old" rel="nofollow"> Related: NFL Coach Diagnosed With Cancer At 35 Years Old </a></div></body>
