    Not sure how that could happen with 10 game limit.

    Not to go all West Mall and all, but business owners work hard to achieve their dreams as well and many have been forced to shut down. Why all the crying for college football?

    Edit: Not directed at anyone in particular. Just a general curiosity.

    The hotspot will be over in 3-4 weeks, before football season.

    No, one article said nothing decided on Sunday and they plan to meet Monday and Tuesday.

    Good editorial but these young men face the same COVID risk whether they play or not.

    The 10 game limit was to keep the games in the family (conference). They can go to 12 game all conference schedule if they wanted.

    Other than 10 college presidents, it appears everyone else wants football.

    Actually, even with the flawed testing, most are probably better of on campus.

    BREAKING: Hearing there is strong traction that #PennSt #OhioSt #Michigan and #Nebraska will all join the #Big12 for the upcoming season. #Big10 #CFB

    Sounds like a great idea but very unlikely but that would be a 'conference' loaded with tradition and big fan bases.....some very tough games also. But how would you establish divisions and who gets left out??

    I wonder if those were just subtle threats to the Presidents before they vote.

    Seriously? Move ISU, KSU and Kansas to the north division

    Uh, not very subtle. You don’t make a threat like that if you aren’t willing to carry it out.

    I read a few reports stating the SEC was on the opposing side of Big10 and Pac12 pressing Big12 and ACC hard to stay on course for a Fall season.
    Real interesting stuff...

    I wonder if this is an elaborate CYA scheme where the presidents can say I told you so if the situation goes south.

    Their marching band has to carry the Texas flag when entering the stadium for all games this year.

    Hate to throw any water on this...think it still may have a leg....but that retweet was from a 2-3 day old tweet....prior to the events of this weekend.
    Again....may have some validity, but the tweeter is being disingenuous retweeting that "breaking news".
    And that makes you a reretweeter, LC!

    Yeah but how can you discount Frost’s press conference today about playing anyone, anytime?

    If I hear later that someone isn’t called a p*ssy, I will be very disappointed.
