    Who wins the West this year?

    The West is getting much more difficult to win. Wisconsin isn't outclassing the division on the field anymore but is still the best program because of coaching. I think it will come down to the final week again like last season but I could see more teams being involved in the race late.

    Top 10 RB U's

    This can't be factoring in recent years. AJ Taylor would be on Wisconsin's list. Georgia isn't on the list period and Ohio St with Elliot and Dobbins would put them on the list.

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    No you won't be hearing anything of the sort from CNN. My father, who leans liberal, refuses to watch that network. One national news outlet I've been very impressed with is the LA Times. I think they're doing a good job of reporting facts and reporting positive news along with the high cases...

    New York and New Jersey currently account for 52.7% of all US deaths. Ouch

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    That was certainly part of the fact that there were "only" 25,316 new confirmed cases yesterday in the nation. The lowest one day total of new confirmed cases in the month of April

    Looking more like the 2020 season is in doubt.

    They had a a bit of a roundtable discussion on The Athletic about this topic. Basically all of the writers agreed that if the season can be completed during the 2020-2021 academic year, the ADs will make it happen. Even if its in empty stadiums for the TV money. Whether thats an Oct-Dec...

    Looking more like the 2020 season is in doubt.

    Fair point. Still a long way off in the grand scheme of things. But in talking to administrators over the last few weeks the consensus was basically this: The momentum of this virus needs to take a complete 180 in order for the decision to be made by late July that students will be starting...

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    I can say from seeing firsthand, the Twin Cities metro area is not taking this virus very seriously. That combined with the increased number of unemployed people and people who "work from home" has led to a ton of people out and about. The only thing I've noticed that has really changed is a lot...

    Looking more like the 2020 season is in doubt.

    I said this in another thread but I don't think any students will be on college campuses in the 2020-2021 academic year. K-12 public schools are pretty much in the same boat.

    Herby says the upcoming season is in big time doubt

    It is hard to picture. Logistically it would be extremely difficult. And if one player would get infected, its over.

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    Minnesota Gov did not make anything official today during his press conference but when asked about school starting again this academic year he basically said he doesn't see a scenario for that happening. I wouldn't be surprised at all if 2020-2021 school year is entirely done remotely.

    Hayden Fry's "Top 25" - #16

    Leroy Smith with one of the all time great individual performances and damn every Iowa kick back then was an adventure.

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    I worked in a school for 17 years so I'm used to washing my hands at least 25 times a day at minimum but like you said, I've become more aware of everything like using wipes on my phone, laptop, remotes, steering wheel, door handles several times a day. I'm sure I'm missing 10 times as many...

    Herby says the upcoming season is in big time doubt

    The NFL does have the financial resources, power over its players, & marketing power to basically do whatever it wants. Fans will probably not be able to be involved, or not nearly as much as they think they will be. The games might have to be broadcast from Mexico, but yeah I think the NFL will...

    Herby says the upcoming season is in big time doubt

    I could see a scenario in which the games are played without fans. Its possible I suppose with lots of parameters in place and if they can get a lot of tests available. Although Universities would still lose a ton of money. But the thought of federal or state governments allowing gatherings of...

    This take isn't hot enough and its far too logical.

    Herby says the upcoming season is in big time doubt

    If there is going to be a football season the curve better start to flatten soon. I thought it was starting to level out over the last 3-4 days but today has already surpassed the worst day the US has had in terms of new confirmed cases and new deaths and there is a lot of hours left in the day.

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    I don't keep track much but they do seem to have issues with government over there. To make matters worse for them, the two states over here the most Italian-Americans, New York and New Jersey account for nearly half of all confirmed coronavirus cases and deaths in the entire county.
