Will we see college football in 2020?

Is it gonna happen or not?

 

Yes, at minimum you'll see an Army-Navy game, etc.

 

High school ball kicks off this week.

I still don't see how high school plays but the SEC sits it out.

 

If they check temps in warmups in this heat, they wont have enough players.
Ran into that at lacrosse so you saw kids putting cold towels on their heads and necks in the shade then coming back for a 2nd check.

 

Been super hot all over the country lately. 130 in Death Valley, which if confirmed will be in the top 3 hottest temperatures ever recorded on Earth. Hottest ever in August on Earth.

 

One of the best things we have going for us is I genuinely think Pruitt cares about his players and it's going to pay massive dividends.

I think a few of the conferences will start the season and we will get at least a couple of weeks worth of games before shit starts getting sideways with cases/outbreaks on teams. No idea how it will go once that starts happening.

 

IMO the SEC will be playing games until entire teams start having to self isolate, then it'll get shutdown. So preemptively [uck fay] auburn

 

Obviously hinges on the next couple of weeks and what it looks like with students returning.

I think they get it started, but have little confidence we see it to the finish line.

Would love to be wrong.

 

thinking aloud and typing which usually goes well, but with students back on campus, will we see a big spike? Seems we should, but wouldn't hospitalizations and deaths go down due to the millions of students who are now not around their parents and elderly, but around other comparitively healthy individuals instead?

 

Sec will give into the bullshit and shut it down

 

Found the one who never lived in the South. They'd play in a zombie apocalypse.

 

Awww, look at the Pac 12 pansy trying to make himself feel better thinking we'll cry uncle as quick as they did.

 

Also, if they aren't figuring out a basketball schedule completely comprised of 8 and 16 team tournaments held each weekend or every other weekend, the NCAA is a complete waste of oxygen. Football is actually the one sport that is hard to deal with in a pandemic environment. Basketball, and many others, could be organized into a series of mini tournaments so as to allow teams to bubble, play the games, identify any risks/infections, then bubble up again for another. Cancelling the basketball season, which has the revenue to afford this (in fact, this would likely be cheaper or the same for most P5 teams), is just a failure of imagination.

 

If I don't get to see this particular Vol basketball team this year, I will be upset something fierce.

 

Basketball is going to happen.

 

Good. The UNC, Alabama, Auburn campus stuff irritates me. We know how to do better, so let's do it.

 

Nope. We playing.

 

The season will start. I’m not sure it’ll finish.

 

But isn’t campus life what most students are really paying for to these colleges these days, especially with internet making information so widely available
