Started a bit later, 5 less games, in the 2nd wave of the 1918 pandemic, Oregon Agricultural was OSU

Cal played 9 games and we played 2 games.

I think the reduced schedule had more to do with WWI, no?

Probably a double whammy. This is kind of interesting --> https://www.si.com/college/tmg/tony-barnhart/spanish-flu

"And despite the threat of the flu, fans turned out at Georgia Tech. The photo that accompanies this story is of an undetermined 1918 Georgia Tech home game that was taken by a student, Thomas Carter, who graduated in the 1920s with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. It’s clear that the vast majority of the spectators in the photo were wearing masks in what published reports said was the peak of the flu in October and November."

Thanks for the link @AOG. Very interesting.

On a side note, I sometimes think I was born in the wrong era. Guys wore suits and fedoras to games...

Who the fuck are you?

AOG

Everybody can stop saying the season is "unprecedented"

I also hate it when people say "we are in the middle of a pandemic." How the fuck do we know it's the "middle"? It might be near the beginning -- or end if a vaccine works.

Feel like we’re at the beginning.

Now go drink bleach. It’ll keep you from getting the rona.

Some of you I think don't know your HCH history around here.

That doesn’t seem like a terribly important point of technical accuracy. Do you get mad a lot?

Maybe the name of General Lasalle refreshes your memory?

Wait, Antoine-Charles-Louis, Comte de Lasalle? Of the Lorraine province Lasalles?

No, this General Lasalle was a barrel horse that broke its leg at the 2017 Eburg rodeo.


It was shot.
