We argue incessantly, in our position as college football fans, about games that were played. We criticize official calls, play selection, injured players, and which coach was where - sometimes even before the games were played!

We're about to enter a new phase of arguing. We're going to get to debate a season that never occurred!

Well most Ags were pretty excited about 2020 last spring before all this madness broke out.  We were supposed to have a pretty good team with a Sr. QB at the helm and some very talented youngsters.  Myself, I never saw Mond ever being a game breaker.  In fact, I think he's quite bad.  But we had a much easier schedule with no Clemson and Colorado instead.  We now will play @ UTenn and Florida at home ( I think).  I still think we have a shot at being decent, but now I'm thinking 7-8 wins tops instead of 10 because of, you know, no patsies and stuff!!  

Of course, in the revised SEC schedule Bama got the easiest new opponents and us and Ark got some hard ones.  Arkansas just can't catch a break.

I think Mond is pretty good.  The ag o-line has been the main problem, and that's been true for a lot of years.  Not unlike our persistent o-line problems at Texas.

And sadly I agree with lh320, I don't think the ags, or anybody else, will be playing this season.

B1G out. Pac<X> meeting right now (spoiler: they're out).

Pretty sure the Big 12 and SEC will shuffle their feet and stare at the ground before moving to a proposed spring schedule too.

Tons of questions.

Yup.  No reason not to claim a 2020 title while everyone else twiddles their thumbs.

Except, not even the SEC will be playing this fall.

The schools?  No.  Football?  Yeah.  I don't think it'll ever actually get started-- too much scrutiny, too much potential liability.  Ultimately, the attorneys are going to take the day, even in the Southeast.

I've been thinking that it will start but not finish.

But you might be right.
