Texas fans must use better discretion after SEC fine for debris thrown on field, Sarkisian says

AP Sports Writer

Texas fans pelted the field in the third quarter after an apparent pass interference penalty against the Longhorns, prompting the game to be briefly delayed for cleanup before the penalty was ultimately reversed.
