Have u seen the rules for the season???

It'll only happen if Alabama, Clemson, Georgia or ND have to delay a significant game. Everyone else has no chance at the National Championship, so why bother?

OSU has just as good a shot as ND.

I don't disagree, but since the B1G is the outlier here in terms of Games played and when the season starts I don't see them delaying for that sake only.

There are going to be more postponements in other conferences too. If there are not going to be traditional bowl games, why not play the BCS final four games in late January. There's no rush.

You’re not wrong. And yet, the CFP (that’s the name now, officially, legally, not BCS) explicitly announced they wouldn’t change the dates.

Maybe if more schools (the right schools) experience delays, they’ll reconsider.

Again, I don't disagree, but I just don't think the powers that be will use the same logic.

Reconsider? This is big time college football, nobody reconsiders ... What? Wait.

Of course the B1G has strict rules because they intend to play the games without the spread of Covid-19. It is just like anything else, if you accept a large degree of infection you will get a large degree of infection. Most of the schools in the SEC, ACC, Big12 are not taking the same approach. They have not seriously protected their players from getting Covid-19 and only consider it an inconvenience that prevents players from playing in the game.

The players and the programs in the B1G already have had the season stopped because of the virus, so they know the consequences of not having the discipline to follow the guidelines. All of the testing will be shared with every school, so nobody can hide any problems. It all is a matter of discipline and commitment.

I do not see a problem for a PJ coached team to stay inside their bubble and "stay clean".
