The college football season is officially on life support.

Prominent industry source: “I think by the end of the week the fall sports will be postponed in all conferences.”

Why do SEC, ACC and BIG 12 have to decide this week?  Or for the next two weeks?  They are playing all conf schedules.  Same for the BIG10 but they seem less committed to playing.

MAC conf lost a lot of games (and $$$) when major confs went to all conf schedules.  It made less sense for them to try to play.  But SEC, ACC and such can still bring in a lot of TV $$$ that they need.  I don't see them walking away from that so quickly.

I don't see a spring season working for major colleges.  Too many guys will opt out to protect their NFL prospects.  Plus timing conflicts with the draft.

A lot can happen in a week, like pushing a decision back 2 more weeks or who knows. This is certainly disheartening news though.

Kind of an update.  This is turning into a pretty good drama, or game of chicken or something.

If season gets cancelled, I hope SEC is the last conf standing!

Students are starting to come back on campus everywhere. I have always thought the reason the season was delayed until 9/26 was to see how re-opening schools to on campus classes will turn out.

High schools seem to be moving forward with the intention of playing. Pads go on in many places this week after opening in shorts and helmets.

It is not official yet but the Big Ten voted today on to or not to play football. All but Iowa and Nebraska voted to not play. The Big Ten is a bunch of wussies.

I think the SEC needs more facts and less theories before they cancel the season.

Amen!

CNS had this to say today:

Quote
"I want to play, but I want to play for the players' sake, the value they can create for themselves," Saban told ESPN. "I know I'll be criticized no matter what I say, that I don't care about player safety. Look, players are a lot safer with us than they are running around at home. We have around a 2 percent positive ratio on our team since the Fourth of the July. It's a lot higher than that in society. We act like these guys can't get this unless they play football. They can get it anywhere, whether they're in a bar or just hanging out."

I think college football as we know it may be dead. I don’t see the sport recovering from this. Either the major programs will separate from the NCAA and create their own association or a non-collegiate league that pays the players for three or four years before they’re NFL eligible will emerge. The recently purchased XFL could take on this role.
