@anotherparent posted:Right now they are not travelling - what is going to happen when they put a whole football team on a plane, to get to a ridiculously far-off conference opponent? Or, two or three planes, to allow for distancing? And then buses to and from the airports? They can see what will happen, and why pay all that money for travel, hotels, etc., only to be shut down after a couple of games anyway?
They should have scrapped conference play, and only played local.
The money spent on flights and hotels won't put a dent in the money they make from the tv revenue. Playing 3 games is better than playing 0.
I think football should be played. But I also agree that they should play locally. Penn St can't travel 100 miles to Pitt, but they can hop on a flight and play Nebraska?
South Carolina can't play Clemson but they can play Texas A&M?
This is why people question the validity of the rules put into place. They don't make sense a lot of the time. What sounds good is done, not what makes sense.
