Auburn Warned by SEC for Noise Violations
SEC warns Auburn for noise violations - Yahoo
When I saw that tag line on Yahoo the first thought that crossed my mind was thank god the SEC has the balls to put a sock in Tuberville's mush and stop his whining.
Sadly, it is all about playing too much Heavy Metal (specifically Ozzie and "Crazy Train") or bad movie music. So, I guess we will have to continue bearing with Tommy T's twists of logic about schedule stength and winning records (too much winning, poor schedule two years back, too much losing, too tough a schedule this year).
On an upbeat note, will the SEC apply this same policy to the endless rendition of Rocky Top in Knoxville?

SEC warns Auburn for noise violations during game situations October 18, 2006
AUBURN, Ala. (AP) -- The Southeastern Conference has sent a written warning to Auburn for violating a league rule by blaring music between plays during last Saturday's game against Florida.
The music violated the SEC's restriction on "institutionally-controlled computerized sound systems," associate league commissioner Charles Bloom said.
Auburn spokesman Kirk Sampson confirmed on Wednesday that the university received the letter but had no immediate comment. The warning was first reported by the Press-Register of Mobile on its Web site.
Bloom declined to say who reported the violation.
Auburn has played the first few notes of Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" or Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train" throughout the season, mostly when the defense was facing crucial third- or fourth-down plays.
The music was played more frequently in the 27-17 win over No. 9 Florida.
Auburn could face a $5,000 fine if it violates the rule again.
The SEC rule states: "The use of institutionally-controlled computerized sound systems, including music, and institutionally-controlled artificial noisemakers shall be restricted to pre-game, halftime, post-game, after a score and team or media timeouts."
Bloom said he was not aware of any other school being fined or warned recently for being in violation of this policy.

I guess I'm shocked the SEC even has this policy. With Ohio State's "Hell's Bells" on third down and AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" on kickoffs, and the fact that the Big Ten is perceived as more conservative than most other conferences, I'm just surprised.

Behind closed doors, I'm betting it rhymes with [censored] off.

You can tell how serious the SEC is about this.
I'm sure that potential $5,000 fine has Auburn quaking in their boots.
