The impacted institution has the option to play the game with fewer than the 53 scholarship players or fewer than the minimum number of position players listed above if it elects to do so.
I didn't edit my post fast enough. I knew about the numbers, but hadn't heard of the SEC forcing a school not to play based on position groups. This is saying that schools are still allowed to play if they choose to. Although I don't know how a coach could send his team out there if multiple positions groups don't have any players available.

Yeah, read my edit. I agree. I also think that even though the SEC says a school can choose to play without those minimum thresholds, I think the SEC would likely step in and cancel/postpone a game if a school had zero OL and tried to go out and play anyways. I think that poses a pretty big PR nightmare and could create liability concerns.
