World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. It took me a while to realize what it was. No idea why OP thought anyone would know what that acronym was.

I can actually see a shortened spring season and then back to fall like normal for 2021.

Hey dumbass... college football hinges on whether or not the NFL plays. If they play, we play.

Your spring stuff is retard shite. Why? Do you really think they will do 2 college football seasons in 1 fricking year? Or do you not think we will play in the fall of 2021 like we have for the past 130+ years?

Good grief. Did you even think about what you said while typing it?

College football is not gonna schedule regular season games for January and February. Can you imagine playing fball outdoors in Salt Lake City, UT, Laramie, WY, and Madison, WI in January and February?


Chances are pretty good you couldn't if you wanted to....there is only so much snow you could play in and once temps get below 5-10 below folks lives are in jeopardy being outdoors.

If anything happens I think we start late, play only the conference schedules and the bowl games / Playoffs. The big 12 plays 11 conference games though, right? That would make things pretty tough for them but they could play 11 games over a 12 week period with the last game scheduled for 2 weeks prior to say bowl season, say season ending in mid December.

There are 12 Saturdays between October 4 and December 20. Start fall practice on September 1 or 8 for a three or four week prep period, play a 10 game regular season with a minimum of a conference schedule whatever that means, play conference title games on December 27, Start minor bowl games the same week with playoffs on 1/9 and the title game on 1/16. Having 12 weeks to get in 10 games allows a bye and scheduling options. The teams would be in town during the holidays but most are probably involved anyway given the number of rivalry games played the week of thanksgiving and bowl game prep over Christmas. The rent a win schools would have to receive some compensation to survive but hell we are already handing out money left and right so why not to football programs that aren't viable???

Hell even worse than that I was thinking of the Big 10 LOL....aint they the conference who plays everyone? I knew the numbers didn't add up (11 regular season conference games leaves very little room for anything else) but I was committed LOL....yeah I fornicated the canine there....but the Big 10 only having to play 9 conference games makes it work even better LOL....
