At this point i hope everyone else has to cancel as well. Misery enjoys company.

If you ain’t a gator then you must be gator bait!

I went to the Florida-Tennessee game last year. Florida dominated and it was a really fun atmosphere. However it is hard for me to cheer for Brian Johnson. 58-10 in 2008 still stings in my brain.

Everyone else is going to cancel too. Just watch.

But if not, I really don’t at all see the point of moving forward with a football season with the number of conferences that have hung it up already. What are you playing for? There will be no true national champion with at least two P5 leagues not participating. There will likely be no bowl games. What in the hell is the point? The opportunity to win a conference championship in front of empty or mostly empty stadiums? That’s a hard pass from me.

College football without ALL of college football is just sad and pointless. I don’t anticipate I will be watching any football this fall if any is actually played. Interest level is a big fat zero without our Ags and without any real point to having a season.

I think the remaining conferences are going to decide that football for the sake of football with no real end goal is not worth COVID-related liability risk.

I will spend my fall hoping to high hell that the NCAA gets a plan in place so that we can have some form of college basketball and not have to go two years without my favorite sporting event — the NCAA Tournament.

Yes, because as we know there is no deciding a national champion without input from the Big 10. Never mind that they didn't have a participant in the 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 seasons' editions of the national championship game. Pac-12 is similarly unimportant when it comes to picking a national champ, especially since the CFP started.

The Southern United States produce the vast majority of football talent in the country, and they also win most of the national championships. It's been this way for decades now, sorry if this is news to you.

And if that is the argument, what are we playing for? If being national champs is the only thing that matters we have never played for anything at least in modern times because even if we go undefeated we wouldn't go to the playoff. Winning your conference, beating your rivals and winning as many games as you can is what you play for.

Although I do think there should be a G-5 playoff too.

I never said that it wasn't worth playing if you weren't going to be in the national championship discussion. My argument is that if you are trying to crown a national champ, you don't typically need the input of anyone north of the Mason-Dixon Line or west of Texas.

Who in the ACC, Big12, and SEC has come to Logan to play football. Them I'll root for and nobody else.

Tech and OSU screwed us out of return games in the 90s. Them I'll root against.

The rest?

Meh.

You can be a big Wake Forest fan!

Yeah USU used to get some big schools to show up. I remember Oregon with Joey Harrington came in 2001. It was fairly competitve too.

Full disclosure — I am basketball fan that happens to watch football only because USU fields a team. I’m not particularly fond of football outside of USU football.

But let’s not pretend there’s not going to be a big fat caveat next to any team crowned “champion” this year.

Not having Ohio State play is definitely going to put an asterisk to whoever is the best team by many people. 247Sports.com has Ohio State as the preseason number 1 ranked team. Phil Steele who is usually pretty accurate with his preseason magazine has Ohio State as his number 1 team. You can see why Justin Fields, Shaun Wade and others are so mad about the season being cancelled. Obviously they want to play as college athletes, but on top of that they might have had a national title taken away from them by corona.

It is what it is though. College football has never been fair when it comes to declaring a national title. Undefeated teams have constantly been screwed through the years. Sad for the Buckeye players though who didn't even get the chance to go for it.
