Ole Miss football head coach Lane Kiffin said Sunday that 100 percent of the players, coaches and staff members in the program have received COVID-19 vaccinations.
"Nobody wants to be in a position to forfeit games," Kiffin said, per Chris Low of ESPN.
SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey encouraged everyone to get vaccinated when speaking at media days in July, noting that games could be forfeited if teams didn't have full rosters.
"You're expected to play as scheduled," Sankey said. "That means your team needs to be healthy to compete, and if not, that game won't be rescheduled.
