SEC announced if a team can't play because of Covid then they forfeit the game. If both teams can't play, then both will receive a Loss. Thoughts?

Plenty of teams were dodging games last year due to this. Now this is the opportunity to hold individuals responsible for their actions.

I wonder how many coaches get fired as a result of having to forfeit a game

The SEC is the Barney Fife of Sports. "Here at the Rock we have two rules. Rule number one...obey all rules". Last year was a prime example.

It’s time to quit ruining these kids hard work. Quit the testing bullshite. If you feel sick or have a fever then you sit out (just like people have done forever). If you feel fine you play. This has become religion. We are talking about young adults in the best shape of their lives.

There won't be forfeits. Just a team playing their #1s vs a teams #3s.

What if the whole team is vaccinated & someone gets COVID? What are they to do besides get vaccinated? I can only assume they'll be a team that doesn't report any cases or just make sure all their test come back negative

What's the rule/timing for testing of players? And does the frequency of testing fall off with your team being at 100% vaccination?

Watch it, some unscrupulous teams will be spraying Covid germs all over opposing team practice fields.

There is zero point to testing a bunch of college athletes who are vaccinated.

If only there was a way to prevent my team from easily getting/spreading Covid to one another? I just wish I could put my finger on it!?
