AUBURN, Ala. — Since receiving a one-year window to prove it can clang its cowbells with discretion, Mississippi State has urged its fans to ring responsibly.
Thursday night’s game against Auburn will be the first major test to the SEC’s new guidelines.
The SEC revisited a 36-year ban on artificial noisemakers at the league meetings in Destin, Fla., last spring, coming up with a cowbell compromise that allows Bulldogs fans to ring them at specific times during a football game.
Violations of those guidelines could result in the school receiving escalating fines: $5,000 for a first offense, $25,000 for a second and $50,000 for a third. No in-game penalty will be assessed.

Good luck policing this one.
