Ale can post the rundown but LSU vs Alabama and Texas A&M vs Tennessee were both postponed today due to Covid.

Auburn vs Mississippi State, Duke vs Virginia and Memphis vs Navy were postponed earlier this week.

Air Force vs Wyoming was cancelled.

All is well!

Looks like Halloween party was the cause (LSU). Either they have no QB's or they're under 53 scholarship players.

Probably good for LSU so they won't lose 63-0.

Looks like game will end up being canceled as Alabama will likely be playing in the SECCG.

Looking at the Covid situation in the US, this can only get worse. Unless the players only play football and do nothing else, teams will continue to get Covid. There is no way around it. The only way around it for the college teams is to bury the results, (which even the NCAA probably wouldn't do) or else half the schedule, or more, is going to get canceled for the rest of the year.

The football players going to a Halloween party is something else. You're just asking for it.

I guess one positive is that many(most?) schools are sending kids home at Thanksgiving and they aren't returning until the new year. So the remainder of the football season will be played with an empty campus. Fewer people to infect, and, one would think, fewer temptations for the players.
