re: The big ten - sitting out the season

teams like oregon state and purdue aren't going to fold their football program becuase of one year of loss. When things get back to normal they will for sure have taken a hit, but they will be just as much of an also-ran in their conference than they typically are. Maybe they'll finish last in the conference instead of almost last. But teams like that are 90 years out of 100 not going to compete wiht the big dawgs in their conference anwyay.
