with a fall football season. Nine conference games and one non-con. Looks like SEC and ACC are likely to follow suit. It’s going to be a strange fall.

It doesn't mean that they'll play all of those games. It means as of today they are voting to move forward. The Big 10 didn't need to cancel today, but they did.
I guess I'll actually be following Iowa State this year. Who else would I care to pull for from any of these other conferences? At least they're in my home state. This is so 2020.
That almost makes this sound political. Weird.the powers that be here in austin are making rumblings about not allowing football in austin. at least the fans anyway. if they can ban acl and sxsw they can ban this. there is talk of playing in jerry's world maybe
Why would they look like idiots by trying to play football?I doubt they will make it to 9 games. Then they will look like idiots

There are a lot of people with incentive to make that so. It will be interesting to see how it plays out and how companies like ESPN participate.I doubt they will make it to 9 games. Then they will look like idiots

Football isn't going to raise or lower any percentage for any age group. I guess the fact that they would not be testing players weekly, conceivably could lower the numbers?
What if they make it to 5-6 games and no one dies... isn't that better than 0 games?At least they tried. I don't want to hear this fear of myocarditis crap. The Mayo clinic says it's bulls#it and the nba mlb and soccer leagues aren't worried about it.
Yes, I do not get the people who say they shouldn't even try. They have protocols in place. They may not be able to finish the season. But we aren't even going to try? Why in the world did the Big 10 create the protocols back in June? It seems the decision was made way back then and the last 2 months were just for show. Once the age stratified data came out that said from a statistical standpoint college age kids are at no danger of dying from COVID the argument now is that we don't know about the long-term lung damage. By this standard, football should never have been played, ever, as something could happen that we don't know the answer to in the future.

But but but that former FSU player who's been out of college for a few years now died from it....................What if they make it to 5-6 games and no one dies... isn't that better than 0 games?At least they tried.

Correct. Jamie Pollard has said in an interview that no matter what the plan turns out to be, it is likely to change -- games that are scheduled will be canceled or delayed depending upon the result of weekly testing.It doesn't mean that they'll play all of those games. It means as of today they are voting to move forward. The Big 10 didn't need to cancel today, but they did.
yes and as soon as one player or coach gets tested positive then it's all overCorrect. Jamie Pollard has said in an interview that no matter what the plan turns out to be, it is likely to change -- games that are scheduled will be canceled or delayed depending upon the result of weekly testing.
We're still a long way from seeing a kickoff.
How about those dorms and dining halls?I doubt they will make it to 9 games. Then they will look like idiots
Why should one positive "end" the season?

If they get 8 games in this year, that has to go down as a success.I doubt they will make it to 9 games. Then they will look like idiots
I think this is a horse of a different color.Big 12 will go down as well. It is just a matter of time. Remember, Big Ten was first to cancel non con as well. Big 12 was like "screw that, we are playing all games". Pollard went as far as to schedule another game to replace Iowa only to have their non con cancelled very shortly after that.
Saying that professional sports aren’t worried about it is completely false. I took part in many of the conversations about the Walt Disney World bubble and the NBA is not taking this lightly. There’s a reason why the NBA is the only one to occupy an entire sports complex at Disney and their practice courts are in the convention centers at the resorts, completely off limits to anyone outside of the bubble.What if they make it to 5-6 games and no one dies... isn't that better than 0 games?At least they tried.

The other conferences now really have to worry about liability for any negative outcomes for players that get covid.
Just as there is liability for shutting down the continuous monitoring, Covid testing, and oversight that was part of the seasonal preparation process...tossing a kid back into the student population or sending him home increases his risk...when the school could have maintained a safe bubble...is also actionable.
No, that isn't the way it works.yes and as soon as one player or coach gets tested positive then it's all over
Hey now, watch those fluids around the K sisters...In similar and just as relevant news, I voted last night to move forward and personally bang all the Kardashian sisters before the end of the year. These plans are fluid, however, and may change depending on a number of factors.
95% recovery rate for this virus overall. That’s in ALL age groups overall. Even higher in the college-age group. There are exceptions to everything, and his death is among those exceptions.But but but that former FSU player who's been out of college for a few years now died from it....................
So we cancel college athletics........95% recovery rate for this virus overall. That’s in ALL age groups overall. Even higher in the college-age group. There are exceptions to everything, and his death is among those exceptions.
