Fun watching Game Day.  They are trying so hard to dance around the politics of who is playing CFB and who is not. 

We can have HS football, NBA, CFB, NHL, MMA, but not Midwest and West coast football.  But it’s based on Science lol

But only at the collegiate level, of course.

It is still safe to play HS FB in the Midwest. Professional too.

Hell, there are even a bunch of College FB teams in and around the Midwest that are playing; Notre Dame, Cincinnati, Pitt, WV, Louisville, Kentucky, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Mizzou, Marshall, etc.

The ritual of Gameday is always a weird one to me. People like it, so I don't mind, especially as filler for tailgates. But when I gear up for 14ish hours of football (Even 11-12 as I start showing my age), I honestly need that AM to run or just have some outside time/errands.

I read somewhere that the B1G and PAC are scholastically superior to the ACC/SEC/B12.

I'm sure that the Big 12 (-2) would gladly accept membership applications from Ohio State and Nebraska.  :)
For the record, I am extremely skeptical that the Big 12 will make it through the full (modified) season.  The B1G may end up looking wise on this issue.
Where the B1G has gone wrong, IMO, is in the lack of transparency.

Tennessee scraps a scrimmage.  Why?  44 players are out. 


With the parameters the NCAA has set out in terms of eligibility allowances, etc, the only reason to have a college football season is money. 


Everyone here is butthurt because it happens to be something you blindly expect to happen.  Sorry, there are more important things.  It's a game.

But c'mon man, be honest with yourself.

If OSU was playing with 55 players and 7 of them had sprained limbs just to stay above the 53-player threshold and the Buckeyes started out 0-3, you tell me it'd be a good thing?  It'd be worth it?

Yup,usually I'm getting alot tasks around the house done.I've always enjoyed listening to games on the radio.Only problem with that is I have to actually rake while listening,blowers much quicker but I enjoy the sunshine,outdoors,exercise and radio announcers usually dwarf the supposed TV talent - Herbie included

That and appearing to be equivocal after the fact.  They also could have waited a couple more weeks and perhaps laid out a provisional schedule before canceling, if they felt they needed to do so.  Either way, if somebody wins the championship this season, it will be tainted.

I also like listening to the radio, but man has it become a huge pain in the butt - with all the rights squabbling it's impossible for me to tell what I can listen to and not if I'm streaming, and I don't even own a real radio anymore other than the one in my car.
