Missouri Tiger fans take to the field as the last second ticks away for a win over Oklahoma, 36-27 at Faurot Field in Columbia, Missouri on October 23, 2010. The win was the first for Missouri over Oklahoma since 1998. UPI/Bill Greenblatt
University of Missouri Chancellor Brady Deaton says MU will not press trespassing charges against 30 fans arrested for storming Faurot Field after MU defeated Oklahoma in the Homecoming football game.
MU released a statement from Deaton saying the game against Oklahoma presented officials with unique circumstances. After careful review, the university has decided against moving forward.
Though thousands ran on to the field after Mizzou’s 36-27 win Saturday, only 30 were arrested. Of course this comes just hours after I ranted about this on my Pressbox Podcast. However, if you still want to listen I guess it’s pretty funny how I get worked up!
