The SEC just showed that they categorically refuse to hold Texas accountable

Surprising nobody, Texas punishes no one for bottle-throwing incident—and SEC won't hold them accountable

In most of the SEC's formal introduction to the way things are with the Texas Longhorns, schools in the conference looked on in disgust as burnt orange-clad fans threw trash onto the field in hopes of getting a call reversed against Georgia earlier this year. Of course, the officials kowtowed to the sensibilities of the crowd, because if there's one thing more important than the integrity of the game, it's making sure Texas fans get rewarded for awful behavior.

That was a reversal roundly condemned in weeks to come, and opposing fans are still letting Texas fans have it for the incident. One other thing that was supposed to be hanging over the heads of the Longhorn faithful, though, was the promise that those who participated in the incident would face penalties.

After all, when Tennessee fans hurled trash onto the field a few years ago, they ended up banning 25 fans for their part in those goings-on. You know, like a conscientious program might do.

Of course, no one would dare apply such an adjective to the Texas AD. In yet one more example of why this is a program populated by the absolute lowest of the low, this travesty was announced today.

What a complete failure and embarrassment for the league. What a complete mockery.

What a completely expected result for the Longhorns.

We should have never thought this would go any other way. This is just the way things go when it comes to the Texas athletic department. There is no abandonment of justice too blatant, no embarrassment too shameful to overcome the prospect of slight inconvenience to themselves or their fans.

This is what you asked for, SEC. This is what you've let into this conference.

I hope you're satisfied.
