Bevos are going to have a wonderful time not controlling the conference anymore ….
NASHVILLE, Tennessee — Oklahoma and Texas won’t officially land in the Southeastern Conference for another but the pair of Red River rivals are already influencing the dialogue in their future league home.
Speaking on Day 2 of SEC Media Days Tuesday, SEC coordinator of football officials John McDaid addressed the “Horns Down” gesture — typically used to taunt Texas players and fans alike — and how the league plans to police it once the Longhorns enter the conference.
In short, SEC enforcement will be much lighter than that of the Big 12.
"Unsportsmanlike conduct needs to fit one of three categories: Is it taunting an opponent? Is it making a travesty of the game? Is it otherwise compromising our ability to manage the game?," McDaid said according to Brett McMurphy of Action Network."There's a difference between a player giving a signal directly in the face of an opponent, as opposed to doing it with teammates celebrating after a touchdown or on the sideline.
To net all that out, every single occurrence is not an act of unsportsmanlike conduct."
