Don't care. Probably no confirmed positives or something. Stanford seems legit, played without problem the following week.jecornel said:Do you really believe no one with Covid played in that game?

I still want a bowl game, but the kids aren’t even sick and the covid bullshit is ridiculous. I would think one player or staff member from the MLB, NFL, and college sports would have a serious hospitalization or death if this disease was really that deadly. Not every single player is in great health and that is especially true for the staffs.
I get it, the protocols are what they are and the liability issue if something terrible happens, but it’s bullshit and everyone but covid bros that slurp up what they are told are buying it. -

I believe the one player I saw that was barely reported on was Ryquel Armstead, 23, of the Jaguars who was hospitalized multiple times with serious conditions from COVID-19 and was ultimately ruled out of the season entirely back in October.
But that’s the only one I remember seeing. -
For saying to just end the season now? And putting safety first. Okay, got it.Tequilla said:

There are inherent risks to playing football on top of playing during a pandemic.DoogCourics said:RoadDawg55 said:

A number of high school coaches died. One coach at a small college. A couple high school football players.DoogCourics said:RoadDawg55 said:I still want a bowl game, but the kids aren’t even sick and the covid bullshit is ridiculous.

Since the deaths are just peaking there will probably be more among staffs. Players should be fine due to age and health although myocarditis could cause long term health issues for some. -

Ultimately the decision to continue or not is tied to the team as a whole ... I suspect the players want to end their season on the field
Nobody reasonable should disagree with you on the mismanagement of this season by the P12 -
Looking at what is available, it appears:NoWarningJustDawg said:
Let's invite 3 teams to each bowl game, so someone is available to step in for covid cancellations.bananasnblondes said:This sucks balls but why would you turn down the bowl game?
Y'all want a banner?
I want a "2020 ALAMO BOWL ALTERNATES" ring
Alamo vs Oklahoma/Iowa State loser
Armed Forces vs shit-tier SEC, perhaps Miss State.
Independence vs Army - hilariously Army accepted the bid well before our shitty league even started playing.
I guess that second one would be like ending the season with a Leach Apple Cup, which are always entertaining. Dec 31st; nice way to close out 2020. -
Jimmy and Jen's biggest blunders were not making a bigger stink about the Pac-12's tracing protocols earlier. I don't believe for a second that anything more than a small handful of players actually have covid. If that's the case then we're retards for completely different reasons.
But these obscene contact tracing rules were fucking ridiculous from the get-go. It was only a matter of time before we got burned by it, and it happened at the worst time.
This is the Pac-12's fuck-up, and Jimmy and Jen should have been blasting every outlet since August talking about what a dipshit conference we have. Instead they rolled over and our season is ending with the biggest thud imaginable.
