wareagle7298 126 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Outcome will probably be the same, but it does make for an interesting story for the game. Does the SEC have any rules about the coach 'phoning it in'. In other words, can he talk with the coaches during the game remotely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win4AU 4,052 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 So if Auburn wins will Saban get the NCAA to change the Covid rule? I don't think this will matter at all. Sark still running the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,082 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Thoughts and prayers go out to Saban for a speedy recovery, and for anyone else who has Covid also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoetTiger 1,896 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Two things... either they will be more motivated to win it since he can’t be there, or they come out slow because it’s the first time ever he has not been on the sideline. It will definitely be an impact, which way no one knows for sure. The Vegas line will probably go down a TD....the FB person in me says Bama wins by two TDS...the Auburn man in me says something happens that makes it closer than the experts think and Auburn has a chance in the end but misses out shortly...

(On edit: Yup, prohibited by the NCAA. No contact from 90 minutes before the game or during the game. )The SEC may have a rule as well but if so it would be redundant to the NCAA.

NoALtiger 3,850 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Well crap, he’s been the one that’s historically helped us out on some bad gameday coaching decisions. Having him on the sideline was our only hope. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PigskinPat 2,579 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Isn’t it protocol that if you test positive then people you have been in contact with also have to quarantine? I would think several players on the team would fall into that category? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think several players on the team would fall into that category? Now there's a thought. I'm not entirely clear on the SEC's rules on quarantine for those that have been in contact. On edit... Here's the PDF with the SEC's covid rules. Here's a screenshot of the page with the quarantine rules: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac Jones is just a plug and play. He may win the hesiman, but, it’s just like McElroy and McCarron. He benefits from a scheme that that fits his strengths and really good players around him. If he’s out, I doubt it has an impact on the game unless the back up is just THAT terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
