PROVO, Utah (KSL.com) — BYU won’t have to worry about any potential fine from the Big 12 Conference for its fans storming the field after a rivalry win.
Crumbl CEO Jason McGowan said in a statement late Sunday night that he offered to pay any fine from the conference as a result of fans storming the field following the Cougars’ 24-21 win over then-No. 23 Utah.
As the clock ticked down on BYU’s third straight win in the rivalry series — its longest streak since winning four in a row from 1989-92 — fans began eagerly lining up around the perimeter of LaVell Edwards Stadium.
McGowan told the team he offered to pay the fine in the locker room after the game, according to a video he posted on social media platform X after the game.
