All I know is I am watching a really good high school football game right now. It’s funny how they can figure it out for high schools but not for the Big Ten

Hey former Buckeye Brian Snead makes an appearance. Had some sexual assault issues at OSU. But he's playing and OSU ain't.

I gotta be honest - I thought football with no crowds would be difficult to watch...but it's definitely not.

High schools would truly figure it out if they tested at least 2x per week. There is no additional tests at the high school level. I suspect we will know more in four weeks.

I watched just a few minutes. There were few fans. Are they allowing family, or how is it being done? FCS has some good quality football.

Agree Sam.  I enjoyed that game immensely.  
For a few brief hours it brought a feeling of normalcy.  It was a heck of a game too!

I did not watch, I saw it for a minute and couldn't generate any enthusiasm so I changed channels and watched something about tigers.

Bucknuts not holding back on Kevin Warren making worst decision in sports history: https://247sports.com/college/ohio-state/Article/Big-Ten-Kevin-Warren-on-brink-of-biggest-blunder-in-sports-history-canceling-football-season-150741698/

”Let’s get straight to the point: If the ACC, Big 12 and SEC play football this year, finish the season and crown a national champion, the Big Ten (and Pac-12) will have made the biggest blunder in sports history in its decision to not play. You are going to be shocked to find out that sportswriters tend to be hyperbolic in columns, but I believe the above statement is unmistakably true. If Ohio State and the rest of the conference are sitting around watching the likes of Alabama and Clemson play each Saturday — and eventually compete in the College Football Playoff — when the Buckeyes and others were told they could not play due to coronavirus concerns, it will go down as the largest mistake ever made in sports.”

“Adding to the futility of Warren’s leadership is the fact that the medical report that the Big Ten cited as its main reason for calling off the season (that coronavirus can cause the heart condition myocarditis, or make it exponentially worse) has since been retracted. This was after a University of Michigan doctor said the report was filled with disputed medical claims.“
