    Lou Holtz is getting the presidential medal of freedom, because of course he is.

    When you call out someone for not being catholic enough I guess you get your silver.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    A bunch of games are being postponed all over the place. And the ACC may shut down.

    Good.

    Out of everyone in the NCAA, Schlissel is far and away the most qualified to make the decision and he says no football.

    I mean we should be no nothing stay the fuck home instead of reduced in person, but reality is what it is.

    I'm good with no Michigan football this year and if Harbaugh wants to put his money where his mouth is...worst case still won't be Hoke bad.

    The funny thing is that the university as a whole has sucked on COVID.

    Our numbers are better than anywhere else

    Suspiciously better. And oddly, all the student tests are outsourced from our own labs.

    I'm sure it's nothing and we are just leaders and the best.

    Posted in the nfl thread as an example, should probably post here as news.

    LSU head coach says most of his team has covid. Hopes the virus won't impact players missing games..... Because that's the most important thing here.

    It really sounds like Orgeron wanted them all test positive early since they’re not retested for 90 days after a positive, which means they wouldn’t have to miss games

    Like....it seems like he was admitting they turned the beginning of their camp into a covidpox party

    And this is my problem with this, and some sports going on in general.

    One, it's deadly. It can fucking kill you.

    And two, we don't know the long term effects from having it. There's been reports that there could be long term effects even if you get over it.

    For all we know this thing is cutting years off people's lives even if they recover. And these kids are only playing for a scholarship, and some have no choice. In the nfl you can opt out and get paid. What happens to a kid who is scared to at in college?

    I bet they lose their scholarship. Which is outright bullshit.

    Virginia Tech "postponed" the home opener against Virginia because of a spike in cases on the Blacksburg campus. I'm not confident there will be any games played at all.

    Based on the timing of things, they have 8 weeks before the Championship game on the 12/19, then the CFP is announced on the 12/20. So I'm guessing if they go with divisional play, that's six games to play everybody in the division then two from the other division to determine the Division champs. Otherwise, it will be like the Big 12 and ACC this year and everyone is in the same bucket and the top 2 teams play in the championship.

    Guess what!


    In an emailed statement, FSU head football coach Mike Norvell discloses he has tested positive for COVID in the most recent round of testing. Plans to be involved remotely as much as possible. Deputy head coach Chris Thomsen will handle in person coaching.

    Chicken butt!

    ND and Wake Forest rescheduled their game that was supposed to happen this Sat for Dec 12th. This, after ND had another 4 positive cases on the team and had to cancel Tuesday's practices.

    It took all of 3.5 quarters for Mississippi State under Mike Leach to break the SEC single-game passing yards record

    632 yards of offense, nine of which were rushing

    In the SEC

    Gonna be an interesting year

    Having multiple teams that haven't played a game on the top ten when there are several 2-0/3-0 teams that aren't in listed in the top 25 is bullshit, cmv

    Uh, folks?

    Jon Bois made a sequel to 17776. It appears to be primarily about college football this time.

    It also appears to be about thirty times more ridiculous than 17776 was, and has already caused me nearly as much joy.

    The thing is Saban took it as seriously as any coach, basically.

    The problem with this virus has always been its not always what you personally do, its what people you interact with do. Its like driving, you can be the safest driver in the world, but that doesn't mean shit if the highway is full of drunk drivers.
