On July 30th, Director of Athletics Ross Bjork released an official response to the All-SEC delayed schedule that was announced previously. He also addressed moving the Arkansas game to Kyle Field, one small silver lining in all of this.
This is the right decision for the SEC, our athletics program, and most importantly the well-being of our student-athletes. Given the evolving nature of the current health challenge and the potential variables our University faces when thousands of students return to College Station, we believe a late September start for college football gives our students, student-athletes, staff, coaches, and university community the safest environment possible.
