Wood have Arizona on their way to Washington right now to play a Sunday game to open up both their schedules on Nov 21. This gives them flexibility to replace other teams who will undoubtedly not be able to play that weekend.

There is literally no reason not to do this.

So it won’t happen.

    The logistics of playing a game in an empty stadium dont seem all that challenging with a couole of days' notice. What do I know thoufh?
    You need officials, TV equipment, a TV crew, etc. It's not insurmountable, but it's not nothin'. I wouldn't be surprised if you also need local health official approval and approval from on high at both universities. I know that where I work you can't change out an inconsequential piece of carbon steel pipe the size of my finger with a stainless piece without 30 people in nine different Skype meetings over a two-week period.

    Scheduling, organizing travel and logistics for, approving something like a college football game with a day's notice? For teams located 1200 miles apart as the crow flies? Yeah, I believe them that it's a bit of a tall order.

    Sounds to me like “we wouldn’t be able to air this game on TV and we’d lose out on precious Shanghai viewership when Pac12 network airs AZ @ WA in 2 weeks”

    Disagree. Disney and Fox know exactly where to put all of their gear. Some of the cabling could be run in advance and you could go with less cameras. The flights are chartered anyway and Hotels would be climbing over each other to provide accommodations for 100 people given how hard their industry has been hit.

    But given the local protocols in the West that we are now seeing, that somehow the Pac 12 didn’t know about, there will be greater odds that games get canceled than played.

    If these cities/counties are not going to make exceptions, then pull the plug.

    Is there a way to join the Big 10? Round up a few more teams and we could make it an even Big 20
