The only ranked SEC team in action on Saturday, Alabama, cruised past Tennessee yet again. There were only four games this weekend, so a bunch of fanbases had Saturday off from having to fret over their team. Even in an era of reduced stadium capacities because of the coronavirus, that is a lot of fans staying home.

Bama fans, despite a blowout win over their rival, had plenty of reason to be bummed out because star receiver Jaylen Waddle broke his ankle and is out for the season.

Vols fans who witnessed their team get dropped by the Crimson Tide for the 14th year in a row did not have a good feeling on Saturday either:

And of course the anti-Tide brigade is always out in force:

Meanwhile, LSU pounded South Carolina, providing another opportunity for snark from Clemson:

Around the country, there were a few surprising results, including Rutgers — you know, the program that has been the Arkansas of the Big Ten for a few years — winning a game in the B1G for the first time since 2017 by knocking off Michigan State in East Lansing. Hey, based on how Arkansas is suddenly playing, maybe this is the year the Razorbacks and Scarlet Knights both rise up. That thought will not amuse MSU fans:

And Penn State fans were more than miffed when their No. 8 Nittany Lions lost in shocking fashion at Indiana, with a controversial call on a winning 2-point attempt by the Hoosiers in overtime sealing the deal:

Rival fans, of course, don’t want to hear it:

This moment from the Middle Tennessee vs. Rice game doesn’t involve a sad tinge (unless you’re the kicker), but it just has to be seen anyway. Folks, we give you the quadruple doink:

Coastal Carolina is ranked for the first time ever and enjoys a “transitive property victory” over everyone in the Big 12 except for unbeaten Oklahoma State:

Finally, in the era of COVID-19, we still can’t help but notice how weird it is when we see seats normally filled with screaming fans being taken instead by cardboard cutouts:

Yes, these circumstances are sad. But at least if crowds sound flat, we know why.
