Alabama, Auburn, UAB and Troy will sit out play on Saturday as each had its game postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
No. 1 Alabama’s game at LSU, originally scheduled for this Saturday, has been postponed due to a combination of positive tests, contact tracing and subsequent quarantining of people within the LSU program, which is consistent with Southeastern Conference COVID-19 management requirements.
“While it is unfortunate to have multiple postponements in the same week, we began the season with the understanding interruptions to the schedule were possible, and we have remained focused throughout the season on the health of everyone around our programs,” said SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey. “We must remain vigilant, within our programs and in our communities, to prevent the spread of the virus and to manage activities that contribute to these interruptions.”
