SEC & ACC will play and collect big TV money. Look for some schools that are in "cancelled conferences" to try to play, even if only a 4-5 game schedule (if allowed to).

Sunbeltagree !!!
uuuuhhhh, no.So if we do get a CFP, do the PAC12 and Big10 still get a payout?
I ask because each of the Power 5 conferences typically get a base payout whether they have a team make the CFP or not. Didn’t know how the contract was written and hadn’t heard anyone talk about the New Years or CFP bowls.uuuuhhhh, no.
They will kick the can further down the road... Nobody will likely play a lot of college football this season. While you are playing psychic- How do you see any reasonable end game of a season happening under the current projections?SEC & ACC will play and collect big TV money.

I assumed not, but you got a good point/question.I ask because each of the Power 5 conferences typically get a base payout whether they have a team make the CFP or not. Didn’t know how the contract was written and hadn’t heard anyone talk about the New Years or CFP bowls.
no idea and have heard no true decision-maker's discussion of that. If they make ir thru the season, I would guess no Bowls and just the CFP. I guess we will know in November the plans and nothing for sure until December. May be just a regular season, if they make it to then.They will kick the can further down the road...

Doubt it. Both will cave.SEC & ACC will play and collect big TV money. Look for some schools that are in "cancelled conferences" to try to play, even if only a 4-5 game schedule (if allowed to).

It’s called America, we are a free populous what ever that means to you. I don’t want to live in a place where my government just shuts down my business. I’m sorry but as an American and all that, that stands for I just can’t get behind that no matter the cost. Freedom comes at a cost. Everyone knows this.Anyone thought that if the US would have done like other countries and really locked down, followed all medical protocol to contain this virus, the numbers would be going down and our favorite sports would be playing? The Irony......people want sports, schools open, bars open, but are not willing to do what it takes to make that happen.
The enlightened in their wisdom and hindsight are pointing at New Zealand now. New Zealand shut their borders at the get go; New Zealand also has like two airports if that and a population less than the state of South Carolina. Our Senate voted to not close our borders. Everything, yea verily "the numbers" as well, Its not as black and white as its made out to be.Anyone thought that if the US would have done like other countries and really locked down, followed all medical protocol to contain this virus, the numbers would be going down and our favorite sports would be playing?

Exactly. They have agreed to proceed (not necessarily play), but as we all should know there is no guarantee that we see a full season. Until I see 2 teams squaring off on the field I'm not holding my breath.If they play, Godspeed.
Doubt it. Both will cave.
I think it's funny how upset some people are that the ACC, SEC and Big 12 haven't caved yet.
It does seem like some are actively cheering for the season to be cancelled.
Why do you think no bowls? I know Cotton Bowl people and I can't imagine them cancelling short of nuclear war. Certainly fewer bowls with some conferences not playing, but time honored bowls will fight to stay alive. Maybe not the Rose, but Sugar, Cotton and Orange will.
Because they would be wrong if we play. They have been spitting their so called medical knowledge for 2 months now and if we play that proves that they aren't as smart as they think they are.. It is very predictable. They will be on the edge of their seats waiting and hoping for the first outbreak so they can say toldya so.Sounds like some posters on here are giddy happy cause most conferences are shutting down. Very odd.
Whether we play football or not has no bearing on who was right or wrong, or who’s smart or not. The truth about the right course of action (to play or not) will be defined by the number of Covid-19 infections, and God forbid, deaths, that happen as a result of holding football season.Because they would be wrong if we play.

You know I could point to China, but we all know that's a false narrative too. Sad that a country would place political image over world safety. But of course we do the same thing here too with other events and occurrences.Indeed. New Zealand is essentially Colorado, in terms of population land mass. So that's a whole country that's the size of one US state. Much easier to manage. I don't know why people keep failing to realize this.
It's an indictment of the education system in this country that so many people can't understand any difference between controlling the virus in a country with a land mass of ~100,000 sq mi as opposed to one that is ~4 million sq miles.
We are basically 40 New Zealands.
Why haven't we banned football because of the broken necks, paralyzing injuries? I think it's because it's rare. Probably not as rare as 19 and 20 year olds dieing of Covid. Stay away from grandma and let's play. It makes no sense. The numbers don't lie.Whether we play football or not has no bearing on who was right or wrong, or who’s smart or not.

I think the issue for the bowls will be the lack of fans at the games. Do you think universities will feel safe about putting the teams on a plane? I doubt the bands and cheer leaders will travel. The conference matchups will have to be realigned. It would be a pretty boring bowl season if only 3 conferences play.
Numbers are going down. Our medical system was never overran. The biggest black eye is the 41k+ nursing home deaths caused by a few Governors.Anyone thought that if the US would have done like other countries and really locked down, followed all medical protocol to contain this virus, the numbers would be going down and our favorite sports would be playing?
