What will become of the 2020 NCAA Football Season?
- Thread starter OvilleNative
- Start date
It would be in the best interest of players to play this season. They will be tested regularly, so the risk is extremely small. Some of them have NFL dreams and others would benefit from the protection being offered by being part of a team sport
We just had the Raymond Cutts issue. Who knows if that would have happened with Spring football

Season should go on. The more time passes the more we learn. We flattened the curve, the hospitals were not close to being over run. Life will go on. Those that want to can stay home.
USF just announced that they will have classes but end the semester early at Thanksgiving for any in person students
Can the PAC12 play without the CA schools?
Here are some highlights from right in the the middle of the 1968/9 Hong Kong Flu epidemic. Millions dead worldwide. 100,000+ dead in the US with a population at that time of over 100MM less than today. And 40+ million people did NOT lose their jobs from karen-panic.
So USF is going to use the excuse of school out for lousy attendance at the UCF / USF game?
Fake news. That’s the gift shop. A rep for the HOF said that the artifacts and historical items are in another, much safer spot in the building
I was thinking the same thing. Looks like the gift shop.
thanks. I thought that’s what it looked like. Good. I guess. I was under the impression it was more of a big interactive exhibit Kind of thing and not All that of a memorabilia thing. Haven’t seen it in person yet. The Pro Football HOF I’ve seen multiple times. That place has a priceless amount of Historical memorabilia.
I wonder how much of that TV money they will get with no Product. TV is not going to be in a big hurry to dole out 100s of millions of dollars for a product they are not getting.
It sounds like everyone is doing a whole lot of work to make the season happen.
Better off having your team exposed now. However, this also doesn't bode well for university dorms.
I hope I'm wrong but I have a feeling it will disrupt teams so much that the season may start then halt halfway through. Especially in the midwest where the cooler weather hits sooner.
1 in 100 die of the flu.
3 in 100 die of coronavirus.
Deaths mostly in 65> age range.
On the average there are 132 suicides per day (2019 stat). This is probably a greater risk to the under 65 crowd than coronavirus. You just do what we've learned to do with the younger people who get it and move forward. The days of zero coronavirus cases reported is 3-5 years ahead of us globally.
Why are we still here with this stuff? Pathetic media? Today I read that people should wear a mask when having sex on news site. Really? You want the 132 suicides per day to go up?

Also read an OK State player tested positive within 12 hours of attending a protest. Is testing good enough now to detect the virus in 12 hours?
I'm guessing no and the writer just wanted to combine stories to drum up clicks.

Yes there will be. Covid doesn’t affect healthy 20 year old much. No fans but there will be a season.
UF AD released statement today he is expecting a normal full season with fans in the stands.
Yes the stats say that but it only takes one for a liability disaster for a Football Program and University. It would be Plancher on steroids
How do you prove that vs that little trip to Publix the day before??
All the Students and professors crammed in the protest spaces every night And shopping at Whole Foods during the day. Then railing that they are afraid to sit in a football stadium next to the plebes. I’m done with this crap argument.

I’m talking about players not fans. A little different than tackling and drenching sweat and particles on other people every time the ball is snapped. Just pointing out a situation that could arise with a player at UCF or elsewhere , especially those w other undiagnosed medical issues..which has happened at UCF under GOL
Given what's going on right now, in another 6 weeks, we'll all be back to normal ops.
How does that differ from the last 80 years of flu And HIV Season football? You woke?
are u really comparing Covid transmission to HIV? Cmon man. and u are an idiot if you are still comparing it to the flu at this point given the well documented differences especially in how easily it transmits and how one has had a vaccine for years.
I love Sports, I love Football but I also know there is still some uncertainty starting and finishing this season with all your impact players intact and not forced to sit out the biggest game of the season. Depth could be a major issue if a 2nd wave does happen, let’s hope not.
