Doesn't seem like they are in a hurry to cancel anything.
want to see the safety protocols.
This might get ugly.
Know, no parties, doing your girlfriend, side piece, oh and the other side piece! I have absolutely no faith they would listen to any protocols themselves.
Let me be clear, I think they should play normally, but at the end of the day, liability and public pressure will force them to cancel the season. Just think about having 1 outbreak on September 1st. What do you think that will do.
They were absolutely screwed in terms of scheduling. I don’t believe this gets the ball rolling in terms of major college football. Those dominos may eventually fall, but UConn’s decision will have nothing to do with it.
He said the other day "You call us at midnight and we'll play you in a pasture". My guess is the SEC will find a way to play.
The Pac 12 however seems to be on the opposite side of the coin. They've got a mini-uprising of players demanding things like payment in the name of Covid protection. Seems like a mess that may not get untangled in time.
to advance to the playoffs. There are no marquee OOC games to boost anyone up and it will be the top 2 teams playing in the conference Championship. otherwise you will end up getting Herbie and gang talking about the eye test and wanting to put in 3 loss SEC or Michigan.
Going to be very tough.
Or something else? Just curious
