This decision by Greg Sankey is absolutely wrong. All of the power 4 teams found a way to make it to their games, but Ole Miss wouldn't 🤔 ASU is flying across country to UCF this AM to play today. Greg Sankey instead of telling OU they would forfeit if they didn't change the day, he could have told Ole Miss they will forfeit if they didn't find a way to Norman even if game is delayed. But instead he didn't!!

If Ole Miss knew that it wasn’t going to be able to fly until after 4 p.m. on Saturday, why did they not immediately get on a bus?
Do they do this every week? Just play with fire? Any sort of flight delay and they need their game moved to Sunday?
Seems to me that Ole Miss did not try very hard to find a way to play on Saturday.

Very weak that every team made efforts to travel despite the Issues except Ole Miss.
Washington and Arizona State cross country flights impacted still playing today.
Purdue taking a long bus ride to Iowa City among others.
All because the Rebs play an FCS team Wofford) next week and it doesn’t effect them having a short week.
Soft move by them and even softer for the SEC to allow it.

No. We will not be moving our Sunday reaction show because Ole Miss refused to take a bus.

If you were expecting Ole Miss to take even 1% of the blame in this situation…
I’ve got some oceanfront property in Tupelo I’d like to sell you.

Pathetic
SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey was in New York Friday for a series of meetings, with his phone stashed away. When he opened his phone, he had more than 30 messages regarding the FAA ground stoppage and how to proceed with Saturday’s games.
“It was a national emergency, and we learned information real-time just like everybody else.“
Ole Miss was unable to travel to Norman for Saturday’s scheduled game against Oklahoma, pushing the matchup to Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
“It’s disappointing,” Sankey told ESPN about the required logistics for Week 11. “It’s a critical time. To have all air travel shut down, no crews… Friday afternoon. Just the worst possible time.”
Managing the crisis real-time was challenging. Sankey was proud of his staff, both those in Birmingham and spread across the conference.
“There’s no information, so you don’t even know what the questions are,” Sankey told ESPN. “It’s unprecedented, and we will have to prepare differently for a future with this possibility in mind.”

Ole Miss not hitting an 8-hour bus ride will sadly go down as the softest move in the 2026 college football season
A lot of “anywhere, anytime” speeches happening right now…
Not at Ole Miss
They’re not football guys
Sad

So it's easier for OU to figure out how to staff an entire stadium and game day operation on a Sunday ...and it's easier for 85,000 fans and recruits to rearrange their flights and schedules...then it is for ole miss to figure out an hour and half flight? What a joke. This is wrong.

Rumors on why Ole Miss is not flying tonight:
There was no longer a crew to fly the Ole Miss plane tonight. The JetBlue crew timed out. This was out of Ole Miss’s control.
This isn’t a huge airport like Texas, Tennessee, etc have. It’s an airport in Tupelo, Mississippi. If you have no crew, you can’t fly.

What an utter embarrassment for the @SEC.
They wait until past midnight to make a decision and then Dellenger puts it out before they do. What a joke.

It's quite remarkable after a nationwide grounding that every FBS college football team will get to its destination tonight or early tomorrow. Great work by all the logistics people.
And then there's Ole Miss-Oklahoma.
Tyler Wilson retweeted
I’m pretty confused as to how every other team found a way to deal with flight issues and make sure they can find a way to play on Saturday but Ole Miss
Idk what’s going on but from the outside as an observer, it’s fairly pathetic and a bad look when EVERYONE ELSE figured it out

I still don't understand why Ole Miss can't handle an hour and a half flight. This isn't a trans-Atlantic flight across the country. What the fuck am I missing?
