Less than 5% chance for college football this year

[Hman]

Getting Covid in the past basically means nothing you can still get it again so it’s a wasted test

True

The only hope is it gradually goes away

Probably wont though because China likely has ppl here intentionally releasing the virus onto the population

[Slipknot26]

Its not happening.
Legal issues , testing is only at that specific point in time. Football is brutal, unlike baseball , they're spread out , very minimal contact .
One person sweating, bleeding leds to 20 infected , leads to huge lawsuits .
No way regardless of current direction Football happens .
Other sports , sure , depending on each circumstances and limited contact vs Football.

[flyingillini]

I say it’s 0% no way there is a season.

If these stupid ass states like Florida and Texas took this a little more serious we would have had a shot at college football in fall.Now we are shot because of ignorance.I mean you had to be watching what ws happening in Italy...then N.Y, New Jersey Conn Mass...I mean its not brain surgery.

the curve was bending in May, college football had a much greater likelihood of happening but without fans

the recent case spikes in AZ, CA, FL, TX, have effed the whole thing up.

sports outlets discussing the subject every day.

conferences going to conf only schedules

very relevant subject now, more than ever

Football in the fall is just about D.O.A. Not going to happen. The remaining question is about the feasibility of Spring Football. I believe the minuses outweigh the pluses. If they cannot play in the fall, just cancel the season and start work on 2021.

Good post Bigdaddy, and spot on. See--when you aren't proclaiming that everyone except you is a moron, or saying that you can kick everyone's ass, you bring some good posts to the table. Kudos.

[funnyb25]

I asked a question back in March when I posted several times that there would be no college football. How would these owners, GM's, coaches, have any real idea what to do when they have not played for over a year. Going to be very interesting.

[hostile takeover]

I think it all goes away after the election regardless of who wins.

There is a 0% chance the coronavirus goes away before the election.

[Mr KLC]

Can someone a lot smarter than me explain how AAU can play all these games in multiple cities during the “hottest” time of a pandemic but college sports can’t start on time?

It went away during the riots?

The problem is liberals run colleges that’s why there’s no college football no other reason not corona

JJ. It is time to have you committed to a mental institution. It is obvious by your above statement that you are totally incapable of thinking logically. You get worse and worse every day. You do a tremendous amount of damage to SBR. You are NOT a moderator, nor should you be. People who go off the deep end with some posts just point to you and your posts as to why they do it. You are a complete and total failure when it comes to leadership and gambling in general.

[jjgold]

We got to get the liberals out of college they’re destroying kids minds there’s absolutely no risk to anybody under 30 years old even if you get corona

There’s 0% chance MLB, NHL, NBA, NFL, NASCAR, PGA, USTA, are all playing and college doesn’t.

Use your heads.

Institutionally I'd like to think this is true but I have disagree, college football an entirely different animal with more teams in division I than the MLB, NBA, NHL and NFL combined.

Many schools won't be able to afford it due to ticket sales restrictions.

Not to mention the optics of some campuses not bringing students back in the fall.

NCAAF going to be a clusterfukk as there will be more differences across the country and lack of timely testing to complicate things every week.

I wish it wasn't that way, but it sure looks that way.

How about these optics, cancel fall sports because of whichever reason that hasn’t been named, yet football players at the same universities should play football?? Its safe enough to play football, but NOT volleyball?? Are football players lives/risks less valued than other student athletes. Canceled or didn’t finish all spring sports yet we must play college football. Those are bad optics. No football. NFL either.

[KVB]

...Are football players lives/risks less valued than other student athletes...

No, they carry more value. They provide the programs for almost all other student athletes. Not scholarships, but the programs.

Without the ticket sales from college football, most athletic departments in the country that have come to rely on those sales will fail.

Without those ticket sales, there is no volleyball, no swimming, etc.

That's the problem the schools are having and the optics aren't good either way.

The optics look bad to offer full scholarships for sports that can’t even generate enough revenue to pay a coach’s salary and support staff yet the athletic departments always whine about not having enough money to pay the student athletes who pay for all the other programs. All scholarships are equal until the football team cant pay for everyone else’s freight. I hope everyone gets to play this year. Volleyball, lacrosse, golf, tennis, track and field, softball, equestrian, baseball, and if the sports can’t pay their own freight then drop them. Either that or pay the players that pay for everybody else. Let’s find out what a scholarship is truly worth.

It's apples and oranges. Only the NFL that you listed is comparable. Why? Contact sport and high roster numbers. Hockey? Yes contact sport but smaller roster numbers?

Cfb? Contact sport and biggest roster by far.

All of the other sports you listed can play and still watch CFB get sidelined.

This is very obvious. You either get it or you don't

[homie1975]

MLB easy. Separation on field
Golf easy. Separation
Soccer easy. Separation. Little contact comparatively
Tennis. Lmfao so easy separation

NHL. Contact. But small rosters
NFL. Contact. Big rosters. Uh oh. Trouble

CFB? rotflmfao. Contact. Huge rosters, the biggest. No students in school but you have them practicing?

This to me is common sense that other sports can play while they sit.

Awful comparison dude. Just awful

Let’s bet posting rights. I bet you that there will be college football games this season. If there is, you leave. If they don’t, I leave.

But I’ll warn you, I’m undefeated at these bets. Last dude I retired was 2dabank. I bet him Lamar Jackson wouldn’t win a playoff game. He lost. He left.

Put up or shut up time. You been running your mouth for months. Let’s see how much you believe in it.

There could be 1 game played in NOV. and you win.

How about we bet 1500 bet points that the over/under is 3.5 games. NO team plays O3.5 in calendar year 2020?

Why would I wager that? Cfb greed. They may try to force it.

Oh wait we cannot bet points because YOU'RE NOT A PRO

yes I've been running my mouth and I've been right

Covid. Stock market V shape recovery preduction in april. You're right - running my mouth and have been right

No go Pro and let's wager 1500 bet points that O/U 3.5 games for any FBS team is the number. I'll take U3.5

Little league? Where? Timbuktu?

Lmao where is little league running? Schools closed all over the country but little league running? What a joke

[homie1975]

NFL players tweeting at league yday

CFB in dire state

Why? Contact sports. They tackle and dog pile. Infection will spread like crazy
Also huge rosters so tons of guys in locker room. Cannot distance lockers.

Hockey hits too, I know. But they slam into each other, they dont wrap up and tackle and get into dog piles of 10 players.

Hockey also much small rosters than nfl and CFB


All common sense here

[homie1975]

It will take a minor miracle to get NFL in 2020

It will take total miracle to get CFB in 2020.

Facts. The virus is in control, not us.

The guy posting right now (me) knows 100x more about Covid and the current data than urban meyer does. Great football coach. Has no idea what he's talking about re CFB. None.
