The B1G really f'd this up.
For sure.  The Huskers were telling all of you that, 3 months ago...

At least in the SEC SEC SEC.

I gotta say though, as this looks more and more like it has a weather component to it, I am left wishing that the B1G had stuck with their first schedule which started in Sept instead of a late Oct start. We'd be getting close to done with our season now, instead of 6 weeks left.
if the folks from SEC territory are going inside because it's too cold......... they're too weak for the virus
it's 75 in Atlanta

For the college kids, seems like the spread is just about always related to some kind of party.

will we see a spike do to all the folks voting in-person last week?

I remember Wisconsin being called out for in person voting COVID spike this spring

It was not crowded at all here, so I don't expect to see a spike. So many voted early here - 85 percent I heard.

I voted early, spent no more than ten minutes inside the building, 2 minutes of that in front of the helper as he checked my ID and printed my ballot, from behind  plexiglass shield.  Everyone wore masks.  Not really an environment for any major spread.

All the election-day coverage I was watching showed the voter lines being spread out, with sufficient distance between individuals or "groups" in the line. So I don't see it as being a major source. 

Back to football, I've actually been mostly impressed with the stadiums that have allowed fans back in, regarding their ability to set up--and more importantly enforce--distancing between seating groups. I figured the fans--especially students--would end up clustering into the best seats in the house and stadium security be unable or unwilling to really effectively police it, especially in states with less political push for strong mitigation efforts.

Overall, it's looked pretty clean, with the exception of those Golden Domer fans who rushed the field after last Saturday's game.

I think it helps that in our stadium at least, the wealthy blue-hairs have the best seats, and the students have never had access to them, and so don't bother trying.  The blue hairs are in no hurry to rub shoulders with one another, so they maintain the spacing.

They think they can beat Indiana and Michigan, so they duck OSU and hope that someone else can knock 'em off.
