You have to be hoping for justification of your own decisions.

Which is obvious.

If you are a conference official with the Big Ten or Pac 12 what are you rooting for in regards to the CFB season this fall?

That’s what I think too. Obviously no one rooting for a death but you can’t really want them to get through the season either.

rooting for 2 wrongs certainly isn't right

Well, imagine somehow the other three conferences complete their season and compete in the playoff and the Big/Pac do nothing.

They can't possibly hope for that inwardly.  I'm sure they say otherwise if asked.

I think at this point the other three are going to START play, I don't know how long it continues (duh).  UGA is reporting a pretty large outbreak among students.  I wonder if the players are being really isolated from the student body.  They might be placed in a special section in classes they attend, and a lot (most?) just monitor by video.

I dont think they should have a NC game this year

maybe instead have a one time designation like the virus bowl
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

They could just award it to the SEC champ as usual and be done with it ....

They need the money so they'll have ALL the games.

PAC isn't a factor in the NC playoff anyway, and the B1G and B12 are only fodder but they're necessary fodder for the "4-team-playoff."  

So now I guess we'll see two SEC teams, Clemson, and OU in the finals.  LSU has lost a lot of players and coaches off their NC winner, so I wonder who will be the other SEC team alongside Alabama?

Probably the UGA-UF winner.  One COULD see a 10-0 Bama and 9-1 LSU get in.  Auburn?  Meh.  A&M?  Long shot.  Tenn?  Nah.

UGA got the luck of the draw this year relative to Florida.  They get Arkansas in game one, which should help with the QB uncertainty, hopefully.  It looks like it'll be Daniels or Mathis, maybe both, if both are cleared for contact (Daniels is not yet.)

I guess my thing is if, God forbid, that scenario plays out then no school should be dragged through the mud. I know it will, but it shouldn’t. It should just be looked at as a terrible tragedy that is no one’s fault.

The NCAA would consider that an impermissible benefit.
