If USC can fly to Washington state, Utah, AZ, OR they can sure as heck make it to Dallas, Tx. So, it doesn't make sense, conference only! Oklahoma can fly to W.Va. or vice-versa. B.C. can fly to play MIami(fla.) If we're going to play at all, then play the whole da..schedule!

We're all going to look stupid when it's revealed Covid can only spread at OOC games.

I am still unclear on if they are canceling non-con to push the season back to late Sept or what. If there are still week 1 games, than I don't know what logic they are trying to use.

Man, are you missing the point entirely.

Of course we want the full schedule, but there is COVID, and conferences have to take that into account. Distance doesn't have a damn thing to do with it. Setting consistent rules for who plays, who doesn't, how long people sit out, PPE requirements, forfeitures, postponements, etc., are the drivers for the conference only schedules. I doubt those three conferences can all get on the same page in the next month, much less 11 conferences.

Fixed that for you

I hope that the current situation can be used to permanently eliminate P5s playing any FCS Colleges ever

I don't care about State RESOLUTIONS that ASK that Big Schools in a State play FCS Colleges to help with their budget

I want better inventory of games which will give me more good choices on TV
