I feel like Usu and BYU are heading for a home and home this season. Maybe Boise too.

BYU is in a tough position. Maybe they finally get ND to come to Provo.

Notre Dame will likely play an all-ACC schedule if conference-only happens

I tend to agree, but I have not seen any such rumors or reports

Yeah they like us so much they stiffed us for almost a decade; seriously ND can

With what logic does a shortened season or conference only schedule make any

There is no logic. It’s just a big flipping circus at this point

It's one magical virus. In the Jordan School district, it's only active Fridays.
Jesse Pinkman

no but it presents fewer opportunities of contraction. They could say only play teams that have blue colors but that

financial logic, no gate revenue = no body bag games

BYU games will BE on tv so it's not a body bag game.
Archaea

I don't consider BYU a body bag game, but most P5's have at least 2 body bag OOC

They want to make sure opponents are following the same testing protocols and

Because conference opponents tend to be closer to home, unless they're not

I think the logic is that there are fewer games, so less chance of infection,

Ok. Got it. The B1G will contain the money, I mean, the virus, to its bank
Doogal McCougar
7/8/20 5:06pm
Fair enough, but it is much closer to travel from, say, East Lansing MI to Happy
chilango
7/8/20 5:17pm
Agreed. It's also much closer to CMU, WMU, EMU or Toledo than PA.
Doogal McCougar

So 10 games you won’t get infected. 11 though you’re screwed!
Adwight
7/8/20 5:39pm
All else being equal, it increases the probability of infection by 10%.

I really think it’s less travel overall, which is less expensive and easier to

Its worth it if it saves even one life.

Actually, I disagree. This 'risk-free' mentality above all costs is worse

Banning automobiles sounds like a really safe idea. People who drive are selfish

So selfish. So are gun owners.

If this becomes the norm in the P5, I predict BYU will not have a season 🙁

If they go conference only, I believe the NCAA should cancel or postpone the

The NCAA was neutered long ago. They have little to no power.

Will they be obligated to pay the buy out?
The Dark Knight

I'm sure BYU wants the game as soon as possible. Reschedule soon or take the $$$.

Likely will come down to how the force majeure clause is drafted, and whether it has the qualifier that the party is
slappy
7/8/20 4:51pm
Sue them in Utah. That will likely have a positive impact on the outcome.
Archaea
7/8/20 4:53pm
The optics of suing may make that decision difficult.
displacedute
7/8/20 4:54pm
Yeah, if there's a dispute over what the term means and whether there's a breach, highly unlikely BYU would go to court
slappy
7/8/20 4:56pm
Agreed.
displacedute
7/8/20 4:56pm
Agreed, so you use it as leverage
Carnac
7/8/20 4:58pm
If it is at all decent force majuere BYU easily can hold them to it.
Baron

How could you claim force majeure for non-conference only?
BYU'01
7/8/20 6:47pm
Just another way for the big 5 conferences to distance themselves more from the rest of the schools.
