The SEC gives teams the option to play with fewer players or coaches if they choose. If a team can’t play, both leagues say the game will be rescheduled or declared a no contest. The policies announced Thursday are a revision of previous procedures, which called for a game to be forfeited and a loss given to any team unable to play."[/I] [/QUOTE]
