The 2020 College Football Season

University Presidents don’t want to be ruled. It’s fine for minor sports and schools. I see power 5 football and basketball schools to form something to keep the big $$ to themselves.
I don't think it's so much the portion of their revenue they have to fork over to the NCAA, but rather the NCAA rules and how inconsistently they enforce (or don't enforce) them.

I think teams should start recruiting these players immediately.
Unless they are comfortable being granted unlimited redshirt scholarships to "take class from home" - why wouldn't transfer to a state school that will let you play and enroll on campus.

The shit house PAC 12 was already on the ropes. COVID-19 is the Haymaker that takes them out.

How many scholarship spots you got for 3 in 3 or 2 in 2 guys that will have to sit out for the first year?
Versus HS that have 5 in 4 and can go in any game if needed?

Without a centralized plan for the return to college sports, each individual state, conference and university will be left to navigate the unprecedented crisis relatively individually. It could lead to an extremely unpredictable few months, and we're already seeing the beginning with last-minute schedule changes and the possibility of delayed or canceled seasons all on the table.

Perhaps the even more eyebrow-raising portion of that report is that the Pac-12 could play football in the spring, which would either force other conferences to follow suit or leave the fall college football season without an entire Power Five conference. Regardless, that would be a massive change.

Additionally, both the University of California and the California State University systems have said their campuses are unlikely to reopen this fall. That includes five Football Bowl Subdivision programs: Cal, UCLA, Fresno State, San Jose State and San Diego State. While it doesn't necessarily rule out NCAA competition, it's been believed by many that athletic competition would not return without students on campus.
If schools choose to cancel their seasons entirely, that opens up a host of scheduling issues, eligibility concerns, national title ramifications and potential player transfers to navigate, among many other consequences that could result from an unconventional year of college football.

It's an unprecedented time and nobody knows how all of this is going to play out, but it's clear the next few months are going to be a wild ride in the college football landscape, and it's already beginning. Buckle up.

Ohio State - Michigan: 58-51-6 missed list by 7 games
Army - Navy: 61-52-7 missed list by 2 games
Harvard - Yale: Harvard and Yale have met 128 times on the gridiron since November 13, 1875

OK, why wasn't Harvard - Yale on the list?
Harvard-Yale not an 'FBS' rivalry. Like Lafayette-Lehigh, which Lafayette leads 79-71-5, for 155 total games.

And Michigan has officially lost to tOSU 52 times, so it's ok to count the 2010 game. :sneaky:
