There haven't been any instances of players from Alabama or Georgia kneeling this season, I believe.

In America. I have lived amongst them my entire life.
They are huge Trumpers.
The only blacks you will see are on the field and none of them would dare take a knee.

Haven’t noticed it on any games I’ve watched recently.

Pro or collegiate.

Even if they do, the public won't see it. From what I have heard, they are staying in the locker room until the anthem is over.

it's the South ..... it's the NCAA ..... and the Orange Baboon is going to be there....

Coaches probably have been told that if they don't clamp down on their players, they will be fired.

.... And as one of millions of southern college football loving Democrats, I can only say........... WTF???

Also, I'm pretty sure there will be a lot of black people in the bleachers watching the game.
