Lol Seriously, at this point I’m almost ready to say give me a full season in the spring versus a partial season in the fall. It will be the same #### in the Spring if Trump is president still... So if they shut down fall football and you want it played in the Spring, plus to pay for your insurance and everyone else's, Vote Biden 2020... Biden 2020 will cure Coronavirus. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAFan11 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 I saw a suggestion on Twitter that the Big12 should offer Notre Dame a year one affiliation with the chance to play for a conference championship. That gives the Big 12 teams 10 games with a possibility of a conference championship and playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobo97 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 If all conferences move to conference only games, how will A&M get to a winning record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the SEC would only play 8 conference games like normal then they would play: Arkansas Ole Miss Miss State Auburn LSU Alabama South Carolina Vanderbilt So they get to play the two worst teams from the East side this year. That will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobo97 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 All kidding aside, non conference games not being played makes zero sense to me... - Apparently what we're saying is, 'You can't get COVID from conference opponents just like you can't get COVID from family and friends.' - If we still have any postseason...bowl games and playoffs...how is that any different than the OOC games? - In addition to playing fewer games already (with no OOC games), coupled with all conferences don't play the same number of conference games, how will that impact bowl eligibility? - And as it's been pointed out above, we all know people have their individual opinions of the strength of each conference. How much will this play into playoff selection? It's not like the NFL where you have preseason games that don't matter. Every game in college football matters. Either play the entire season, or don't play it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valhalla Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 PAC - 12 follows the Big 10. I wonder if we could have some kind of Big 12/SEC/ACC alliance for non conference games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just can’t swap clothes afterward? All this because the Longhorns cooked up a disease to help cancel the season because my Aggies were gonna win the Natty and Mond the Heis.... I’m sorry.

I wonder if we could have some kind of Big 12/SEC/ACC alliance for non conference games. ACC is very likely to follow the Big10 and PAC-12 in going conference only. The SEC, since they will, by process of elimination, be forced into a conference only schedule, is discussing adding one or two conference games to its schedule. That would put everyone playing their 6 division games, plus the two previously scheduled cross division games, as well as two more cross-division games. For example, BAMA already has their 6 SEC West games, plus hosting UGA in week 3 and the traditional Third Saturday in October at Tennessee. They could also wind up with Florida and South Carolina. That would put Florida playing BAMA and LSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, there is no governing power that can make all of the conferences do the same thing, and enforce the same testing rules for all of the Power 5 conferences. It really more safe for South Carolina to play Texas A&M than Clemson? And that’s just one example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the NCAA consider moving a semifinal or national championship game if the host city is dealing with a COVID outbreak? Will bowl season and the CFP be victims similar to March madness?

Story time: I first met @Smoaky when I was in high school, working at the Country Tavern as a busboy. I just went up to tell him real quick how much I enjoyed his show and his faithful coverage of East Texas athletes. Dude proceeded to talk football with me for nearly an hour. I told him of my ambitions to be the heir apparent of Gino Torretta at Miami. He politely suggested that I might have a better shot in D-I at fullback, then suggested I hit the weights and try to walk-on at Nebraska. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
