No because if we don't have a season then ~80% or more of FBS Athletic Departments will go bankrupt.

Auburn would get to skip the every other year beatdown trips to Athens and Tuscaloosa and pick back up with both games at home again.

Sounds like a win win for you guys.

Anyone who thinks there will ever be a viable vaccine is pretty much an idiot, or someone looking to profit

Fauci can suck my balls. Trump wants football, fans want football, so there will be football

No way this happens. It may not look like a typical year but it's not being cancelled. To borrow a quote from the mayor from Jaws "You say barracuda (no baseball) people say who? What? You say shark (no football) and you've got a panic on your hands."

Trump, like Fauci, will not be making the decision

Nope, to much money in the line.

Schools can't afford not to have football.

I just don’t see college football happening this fall. Possibly an abbreviated schedule later in the year or something. That’s even doubtful right now. Let’s just hope college hoops can play at some point this season.

Dennis Dodd put the odds of season happening at 30%, maybe he's just looking for clicks IDK

They aren't cancelling the season. If they cancel the season they are cancelling college athletics.

They'll play in some capacity in fall or winter or spring or something, but they won't cancel the season.

At the end of the day, our economical health will supersede the public health concern. You can't have a strong health care system if you have a weak economy. I think most decision-makers were apprehensive about the cancellation of spring sports, but the money from spring sports (excluding the NCAA Tournament) is not nearly as enticing as monies generated from Football. Money will be the driving force, IMO, and will be the reason the season happens.
