July 9, 20206 yr I’d assume the rest of the Power 5 will follow suit. That would mean big changes for UofL and UK.

July 9, 20206 yr Really worried about the MAC schools and group of 5, this could devastate their budgets/athletic departments.

July 9, 20206 yr What is the impact of this on possible bowl games ? Going to be tough for UL or UK to scrap together 6 conference wins...

If teams only play 10 games I’d imagine they drop the required win total. UofL can definitely get five conference wins this season.

Look at how much money was lost at the end of the basketball season. Money will be lost by reduced fans at games...bowl games, right now I think are dead for 2020.

The powers to be will ask the athletes to risk their health to keep the university and other athletic programs afloat. For a scholarship...

It would be hilarious if the ACC said they won’t play ND and ND ends up playing a schedule of 100% group of 5 schools. Then pulls a UCF after going undefeated and left out of the playoff but declares themselves national champs anyways. I’m actually rooting for this to happen.

I think several schools will do like Stanford and use the Pandemic as an excuse to trim the athletic budgets by eliminating fringe sports. No college is shutting down for the lack of athletic revenue as most colleges make little to no money from athletics above what is spent on athletics. They may shut down sports or cancel seasons for this year, but no school is surviving campus wide because of their earnings from sports. Schools are just happy if sports can pay for them selves.

Let's say all of the Big 5 schools have at least two losses this season and ND was undefeated against the MAC. There would be several that would be claiming that they were the best...that's what is sad. ?
