I think timing may prevent that. To actually forfeit immediately, IMO its going to have to be proven rather swiftly that Auburn knew what was going on and shouldn't have played him.


how swiftly?

I would would think that for the games to be forfeited rather than vacated, the decision would have to come before the end of the regular season (or at least before the championship game.)

Wouldn't it be ironic that if immediately following an Auburn win over Alabama, the forfeiture is announced and the winner of the Arkansas-LSU game is declared the SEC West winner?

I really would be surprised if any decision is made before the end of the season, but I would hope that if the evidence is sufficient, the appropriate action on declaring whether Cam is eligible could be taken before the end of the regular season, in fairness to all.
