I live in Gainesville and everywhere I go it’s mandatory to wear masks. I haven’t been in any public business that there wasn’t masks being worn minus restaurants.

It’s not, especially around campus trust me I saw less people wearing masks than people that were wearing. Especially at night. And to put the icing on the cake Trevon Grimes is literally trying to get into a bar right off campus right now. Friend of mine just saw him getting let in😂
 
So wait, their paper-thin National Title aspirations are over after an embarrassing loss to Texas A&M and suddenly they have a COVID outbreak and have to 'postpone' the LSU game?

Seems convenient.

19 players test positive plus 10 more directly linked to one of the positive players. All 29 in quarantine. Could affect next week's Missouri game if more positives emerge.

So far Jimbo says no problems in College Statiion....

supposedly 5 players had some kind of symptoms on Friday but didn't report it. Claim they thought it was "seasonal allergies". Reported sore throats and sneezing on Sunday....

SEC continues to be a sham. Why aren't they testing on a Friday before a game? If they were symptomatic on Friday, they probably would have tested positive Thursday or Friday.

Exactly. It brings into question the whole testing protocol and hiw serious they’re taking it. I’d like to know when the last time those guys that are positive now were tested. Should be at least once/twice a week and quite likely more than that... I just wonder what the fūck they’re doing. And then you see that apparently there is at least one of their players getting into fight in a bar tonight.

I’m not one for telling people how to live their lives, but any modicum of sense and virus avoidance strategy, would dictate that a bar is the last place you would want to be.

It’s a great place to catch the flu, and catch a cold, so obviously it’s a great place to catch the vid. I mean if people want to do that on their own dime, have at it, but these guys are supposed to be staying out of trouble and avoiding those situations, and shoulder to shoulder with people hyperventilating and talking shlt all night, with literally zero spacing means a room full of the vid particles floating around. Literally makes no difference if you wear a mask in this situation. If you have it, you going to be blowing it out into the room.

You know what they're doing right? They're not testing before games because they want to play the game, and they're just blindly hoping nothing goes wrong. SEC bullshyt all the way.

You know what I fear as the season progresses? Teams that lose a game or two stop buying into their bubbles and doing things right. They feel like they got nothing left that's all that significant to play for, so they start hitting the bars and banging rotten crotched co-eds until their schmeckels fall off. It's a real potential pitfall as the season progresses, especially on teams with dicey leadership at the top. Remember how our team fractured so badly as the season progressed last year?

I think it was honestly unrealistic to think a bunch of college kids would behave the way they're supposed to and not have any fun. Adults can't seem to obey the rules, so why did anyone think kids would? It's not like college football players have a long reputation for smart choices and staying out of trouble.

And if you think our team is above this, I've got bad news for you. So let's enjoy the gaytor misery, but don't be surprised when our team gets it in a few weeks.
 
The last test before a game is supposed to be by a third party testing service. From what I read on Bama site, it seems like they do it Thursday, especially if they are traveling to a game. They get the results very late Thursday evening.

By contrast, the ACC tests 24 hours before a game - Friday- and get the results at some point Friday or even early Saturday morning. I saw where Fuentes didn't find out about some of his guys until Saturday morning. The last test before gameday also has to be by a third party testing site.

..yawn. fever, cough, back to normal .


Higher percentage chance of being killed, especially under 65, from the US flu or a car crash than from the wuhan virus.
If you want to go to the game, go. If you don’t, don’t.

..just call it a protest with rioting and burning down businesses. People won’t say anything. The concerns over the wuhan virus will magically disapper.

No he didn’t say that. He said go to the game if you want and if you don’t feel
Safe then don’t! The worlds a dangerous place and one day we’re all gonna die of something, so if you want to go to a ******* football game then go! Or don’t go! Your odds of dying in car crash going to and coming from the game are much higher then dying of corona but we’re not banning/locking down cars now are we Mr Whiny? Smh
