Bowls? You are lucky to get a season.

Even if the season goes on, what are the odds all the bowl games wind up getting played? Many of them lose money as is, and if you have to restrict fans/have no fans does it really make sense to have all of them?

If they do go on I would imagine it would be 5-5 though. Maybe keep the 6-4 rule for at large selections though.

That's my guess, too. Conference championships only, and lucky if we get that.

If this season happens successfully, I can assure you there will be a playoff. With the season pushed back, those will likely be pushed back as well to like February.

Playing is starting to make less and less sense. I'm not sure it helps players to expose them to risk for no reward. Even those who see it as an NFL audition could always be better served to wait a year and play next season. Fans will be limited and there will be no post-season.

SEC teams will be forced to run a gauntlet for no reward while teams in easy conferences will have better records and get more praise/attention and the SEC teams with losses to other SEC teams are called trash even though in any other year they have quality OOC wins and a top 25 ranking. I can't wait til we hear how great Insert Name U is even tho everyone in the conference minus the bottom 4 teams (and maybe 2 more out of those 4) would beat them like rented mules. It happens every year but we tend to have bowl games to show what lower ranked SEC teams can do to these higher ranked low SOS opponents.

If playing didn't keep the lights on I'm not sure anyone would be doing this.

So, Kentucky should cancel the season since State leads the all-time series and won 8 out of the last 10?
