Just like last week, no trends in penalties emerged among the winners and losers of Week 9 SEC football.
The team that racked up the most points this week, Arkansas, was able to reach a 62-point total while only incurring three penalties for 25 yards. Vanderbilt, on the other hand, the only SEC team to get shut out, incurred six penalties for 39 yards.
Because of its bye week, Alabama no longer is the most penalized team in the SEC. That title now belongs to Ole Miss, with 60 on the season. The Rebels also have the most penalty yards on the season, and are still the only team to have broken 500 yards in that category.
