The 2020 College Football Season

I don't doubt that, though off the top of my head, I can think of thee since 1988: LSU, Tejas and Miami. Also, keep in mind that it was our policy not to take our black players into segregated states during Jim Crow. Woody was particularly adamant about that.


Jim Crow laws ended in the 60s.

I really would like LSU and tOSU to schedule another home and home though.
A true home and home and not this Superdome and pick one of the Ohio NFL stadium bullshit either.

Ok I’ll bite, I see LSUs record against the B1G as 9-5-1...I see home/homes against OSU and Indiana and a trip to Green Bay to play Wisconsin with a Home game too...what else am I missing?

footprints.
to allow Big XII, ACC (SEC states) and Norte Dame (B1G states) into the mix since the initial phrasing was “up north”

we’ve been to South Bend 4 times
Wiscy twice (one at Lambeau)
tOSU once
Indiana once

we have also been to Nebraska (prior to them being in B1G)
Maryland twice (prior to being in B1G)

but while we’re talking shit, lets not act like tOSU’s whopping one schedule trip ever into an SEC stadium is worth bragging about either.

Hell, since WWI ended, y’all have only played 3 non-bowl games (i.e. game y’all scheduled yourselves) inside the SEC footprint.
Note: i mean against power 5 teams, because i’m too damn lazy to see if y’all ever played some small shit school somewhere.

LSU has ventured into Big Ten territory 8 times since 1970.

Most of the times that it has come up that OSU was in talks with an SEC school the word would come out that the SEC school was demanding that we play there one time, that Ohio State was not worthy of a return trip. That's happened at least 3 times in the last 30 years, I don't remember the teams. It hasn't happened recently, then again, we've got Alabama on an upcoming schedule now, so maybe now we're worthy.

So in that case our trips to Virginia Tech and North Carolina State and Texas and twice to Oklahoma and to Miami all count too or you are cherry-picking, right?

Miami counts.
and if you can tell me which SEC teams play in Virginia, North Carolina, and Oklahoma, i’ll count them too.

look at my post you quoted. it clearly says SEC states and B1G states.




We had that when I was at tOSU. Pretty sure the one in Baton Rouge ended in a dreaded tie, which is too much for American sports fans to handle.

yep.
i was a kid and it was the first time i ever saw anything end in a tie.

i remember asking my dad why they quit playing if nobody won yet.

A 2 hour stay of execution?



My guess is they push back the season a month. They will state that they will first have to make sure they can keep their campuses safe and football will come if that can happen.

What I think needs to happen is that they realistically look at what they need to do to keep the campus safe and how they transport teams each week for games.

At this point fans at the stadium has to be complete out the window. It's not about social distancing at the game but everything that goes on before and after. It just will endanger everyone on campus to have non-students come in every week. They should even tell non-students to stay away from campus and around campus if they want a season. Let these campuses operate like a bubble if they can.

Vandy in Columbus was one, then wasn't there a home and away with Georgia that got cancelled a few years back?

No, it doesn’t. It says “inside the SEC footprint” which is a nebulous term you only decided to define now.
