SEC football coaches being oblivious to national elections? CCU’s Moglia has thoughts

Another national election, another SEC football coach who is oblivious to the date of the vote.

In 2016, it was Alabama coach Nick Saban who said the day after the presidential election that he had been unaware the vote was taking place, adding “we’re focused on other things here.”

On Tuesday, asked by a reporter at his weekly news conference if he discussed voting in the midterms with his team, or if he knew it was election day, South Carolina coach Will Muschamp replied, “I do now. I’m getting ready for Florida.”

Apparently national elections aren’t big in the realm of SEC football.
