I think it's time to face reality. There won't be football this year. There, I said it. The offseason stream thread will live until August, 2021.
well... UNL wouldn't have a losing season

So.. if all the conferences do this, they will have to join one pretty quickly if they want to play football.

so, if Iowa wanted to play Iowa state, that's forbidden?

seems odd

the Huskers will try to play football unless they are completely shutdown by the Big 10 or the NCAA

it might look like the 1918 schedule, but they will play exhibition games

1918

Iowa
Omaha Balloon
Kansas
Camp Dodge
Notre Dame
Washington (MO) in St. Louis

1918-Iowa (Western)
9/28vs.Great Lakes Navy (6-0-2)L010
10/5@Nebraska (2-3-1)W120
10/12vs.Coe (non-IA)W270
10/19vs.Cornell (Iowa) (non-IA)W340
11/2vs.*Illinois (5-2)L019
11/9vs.*Minnesota (5-2-1)W60
11/16vs.Iowa State (0-3)W210
11/23vs.*Northwestern (2-2-1)W237
11/30@Camp Dodge (non-IA)T00
 
6-2-1
 12336
The pandemic year of 1918 was good to Iowa football.

Defeated rivals Nebraska, Minnesota, and Iowa State. Tied Camp Dodge, a WW-I military base, and lost to Great Lakes Navy, a military base. Cornell & Coe are now D-III schools.

Now that it's conference games only, what are the odds they add a 10th game to balance the home-away games?

Nevermind, I see the discussion on the other thread.

JC games are postponed to spring..... Some more D3 leagues have already cancelled / postponed games, as well. It's only a matter of time.....

If Miami Marlins are sidelined after two games, 15 players and two staff testing positive, the odds of a college football season which involves more players in closer contact, are very low.

Iowa had high school baseball this summer. Several teams suspended their season for two weeks after experiencing positive tests. I do not see a football season happening this fall, and if it does start, it will be over in two weeks.

I suspect many parents will tell their college, and high school athletes, it is not worth chancing your health to play a sport that requires close contact with others. 

We will be watching the Golf Channel, gymnastics, and figure skating.
