On the eve of the SEC kicking off its 2020 football season, all 14 of the league's teams were cleared to play following the latest round of PCR test results.
According to SI's Ross Dellenger, the SEC has altered its weekly protocol to remove its previously scheduled Friday antigen tests due to a proclivity of false positive results. The conference will instead conduct a third PCR test on Thursdays.
The SEC tests its players three times per week. Previously, that included two PCR tests and one antigen test. PCR tests are considered to be more accurate, but take more time than antigen tests.
