  1. What I surmise is that is 3 steps past the line of insanity, right there...
  2. Likewise elsewhere too, but the question remains: Well then are those players on the football team..? Would those students have been tested at home..? COVID, is beyond sports, should we shutter work..?
  3. Could this be a blueprint for broadcasting sports during the pandemic..?
  4. Here's a "double-down" on the issue, as the gubna' of Micheegan (purposely misspelled) is glad of no football:
  5. So was NU the only school with it's prez to vote to play football..?
  6. I am under the impression that some schools have sent the students home, thus they must get high/ drunk/ laid in mom's basement.?!
  7. Meanwhile, B1G is hoping for the worst, a complete collapse of the season in tradition rich towns of football royalty as Austin/ Norman & Tuscaloosa...
  8. Maybe still trying to recover from selling Bart Simpson to Mickey Mouse..?
  9. The Devils' fork up a good deal:
  10. Also, something else every Husker fears at the moment: Baylor completing a season & going to a NY6 bowl, whole NU goes gameless in 2020...
  11. Colorado also now sits with: A conference with an anemic 18 million subs on 3rd tier (due to Larry Scott bungling PACN) & bad tv time slots... A series record vs USC sitting at zero wins while in new league, no longer playing Nebraska or Oklahoma or Texas... That may be fixed in playing teams from the old Big8 along with Texas, while keeping USC/ Utah on the annual slate..?
  12. XII still needs brands as the smallest P5 with 10 teams, why not get 50% of teams that bolted, to return home..? Not only that, but it has a double-down effect on B1G perception vs that of XII especially if XII add USC/ UCLA...
  13. That may lead to "lot's of plunderin' booty, in empty dorm rooms" (left over books & stuff)...
  14. Yes, but all that does is show NU faithful that B1G fans & alumni, don't really value Nebraska, as such, XII should push for Husker & Buff back home...
  15. Right now, the focus should be for XII to (re)gain a pissed-off Nebraska program, that has been shown its value by not "tv execs", but B1G fans & alumni, as nada... But, to get Nebraska, XII needs to bring something that makes it look like: "p.r. win" for the Huskers, as NU won't come back to XII as is, hat in hand, needs selling... For Nebraska to tell fans, "Hey we're going back to a new & untouchable XII that's adding Colorado in division, with Oklahoma & Texas" would be enough for most... But to also say "Nebraska will have cross-divisional tilt vs: Washington/ Oregon/ California/ UCLA/ USC/ Arizona/ Arizona State & Utah" would be a "NU home run"... If looking at this from the lens of when ESPN poached BigEast for it's prized jewels (in 2 raids) an objective was what needs to make Miami happy enough to move... Just as USC would want something to sell fans that says "hey, we are keeping majority of old rivals in this move" so as to not look meek - "PAC is dead, no choice"... When ESPN pulled Miami to ACC, the 1st adds were: Virginia Tech/ Boston College, and, I'd argue the pair is similar to USC wanting to keep Oregon/ Washington... When #ACCStrikesBack in the 2nd raid, it was for Syracuse (who ACC wanted at 1st) & Pittsburgh, who we could argue as at least on par with California & UCLA... And this can compare the last move (not discounting the wonderful move of adding 62.5% of Notre Dame football #OnlyShowInTheMidwest this year) to Louisville... When ACC added Cardinals, a land bridge from Notre Dame to rest of ACC (notably Virginia & North Carolina) formed, Arizona/ Arizona State/ Utah do similar too... In this situation, ESPN would place Kansas State & Oklahoma State in SEC, then "XVI v SEC" end of year games could be similar to "ACC v SEC" end of year tilts.. . Nebraska v Kansas State/ Oklahoma v Oklahoma State/ Texas v Texas A&M/ TCU v Arkansas. games that follow of traditional ACC v SEC tilts, on ESPN networks... Kentucky v Louisville/ Clemson v South Carolina/ Georgia v Georgia Tech/ Florida v Florida State games that would air before the western foes on ESPN channels... On a side note I see another similarity, a ACC has created a consortium for research just as in B1G, I've said same is possible in XII raiding PAC (all AAU -1 team)...
  16. 2020 is like Duracell, can't stop won't stop... Is ticket refund an option after November.?!
  17. It goes great with a "man cave" tv & $15 set aside for a "date"..?
  18. Well, in an alternate universe, there's also Championship Chuck...
  19. Hmm... ESPN looking to pull some strings, to consolidate..? Or just sports public service announcement, on facemask..?
