Yeah I heard that the plan is to start on 10/24 and then play 8 weeks straight with a CCG to follow the 8-game regular season, on 12/19.  It'd be better than nothing.

Both the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel and ESPN are going with a restart the weekend of October 24.
ESPN's Cole Cubelic points out, in time for eight games and a title game right before CFB selection.

Not sure about the SEC or ACC schedules, but the B12 CCG is scheduled for 12/12.  So the B1G playing a CCG one week after, would still work out okay for the post-season selections and plans.

We might even see some of the conferences that are already playing, insert another bye week somewhere in the season, to make it align exactly.

Edit: Just checked and the SEC is already scheduled to play its CCG on 12/19 so it should work out fine.  I wouldn't be surprised to see the B12 push its CCG back a week to allow for an additional bye during the season.

The Big Ten Conference will use data provided by each Chief Infection Officer (CInO) to make decisions about the continuation of practice and competition, as determined by team positivity rate and population positivity rate, based on a seven-day rolling average:
Team positivity rate (number of positive tests divided by total number of tests administered):
Green 0-2%
Orange 2-5%
Red >5%
Population positivity rate (number of positive individuals divided by total population at risk):
Green 0-3.5%
Orange 3.5-7.5%
Red >7.5%
Decisions to alter or halt practice and competition will be based on the following scenarios:
Green/Green and Green/Orange: Team continues with normal practice and competition.
Orange/Orange and Orange/Red: Team must proceed with caution and enhance COVID-19 prevention (alter practice and meeting schedule, consider viability of continuing with scheduled competition).
Red/Red: Team must stop regular practice and competition for a minimum of seven days and reassess metrics until improved.
The daily testing will begin by September 30, 2020.

Where's the schedule?

Do the Huskers play at home on the 24th?  

Let's get with the program!

Patience.  You've got 5 or 6 weeks before the first game, so no hurry.

On CCG day, the Big Ten will do full division matchups. Camps meet, but so do second place teams, third and so on. 

This idea is excellent

5% is awfully tight window  if a position group gets hit with covid it could push it into the Red Zone for stopping practice.  
seal up those bubbles and no socializing for 4 months,

but we get to watch football!

they are talking about the priority of who gets the vaccine when it comes out

health workers

public services like police and firemen

nonsense 

the vaccine should go to all college football players first

then college baseball players

then the rest of us



They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.
