Another similar Friday morning report came from Ross Dellenger of Sports Illustrated. 

There is a plan for #Bama-#LSU to meet next Saturday, sources tell @SInow, but it is dependent on this weekend’s games being played as scheduled. Test results still arriving.

This plan could move Bama-Arkansas to 12/12 & Ole Miss-LSU to 12/19. But this is a week by week thing.
