As a college football fan, I LOVE Saturdays like today

11:00 - Indiana (9) at Ohio State (3)
2:30 - Wisconsin (10) at Northwestern (19)
6:30 - Oklahoma State (14) at Oklahoma (18)

And if I'm not too tired....

9:30 - USC (20) at Utah could be a sneaky good game.

I'm going to enjoy it while I can, because I have no idea how long it can go on.

That is the main focus I'm looking at! The next tier for flipping around.

Cancel the season.  It's a farce at this point.

If my count (using CBSSports.com's scoreboard) is correct, that's 15 games postponed or cancelled this week alone.

And the Covid numbers nationwide continue to climb....

Holy cow these refs in the Wisconsin game have been brutal.

This one would definitely upset the apple cart.

Such a good coach. Really has done wonders with that program.

And having a decent QB helps.

FSU backed out 3 hours before kickoff with no new information and also turned down offers by Clemson to play the game tomorrow or Monday. FSU is terrible and used this as an excuse to not get obliterated by 40+ by Clemson which would hurt recruiting. Don't make it more than it was, a spineless move by FSU

The rematch between Coastal Carolina and Louisiana in the Sun Belt Championship should be a great game.

If enough other games get cancelled, it's possible they still can.  It's a fluid situation

Yes, but it would take a lot of cancellations. The current rule says they'll only change the requirement if "the average number of conference games played by all conference teams falls below 6."

Currently, the average number of games played is 4.4, with 3 scheduled games left. For the average to end below 6, teams would have to play 1.5 for fewer additional games each. In other words, at least half of the remaining games would have to be cancelled for the Badgers to become eligible.

Possible, but I wouldn't bet on it...and I have been a skeptic on games getting played.

Hopefully Northwestern will keep on winning, so it won't matter.

BYU got screwed in the CFP rankings tonight.
