College football's wild, weird season limping to finish line with COVID woes and conspiracy tweets

Nothing has been easy during this college football season, so it makes sense that the run-up to the national championship game would include:

“If you’re not confident to play then SAY IT,” Kristen Saban Setas, herself a 2013 graduate of Alabama, tweeted. “I call BS on the COVID cases. They’re just worried about their QB and want him to have more time to heal. You didn’t see us postpone the rest of the season to wait for [injured receiver Jaylen] Waddle. BYE.”

That tweet was promptly deleted. You can imagine Nick called Kristen faster than Devonta Smith in the open field.
