Tulsa at Arkansas State North Texas at Houston

Lightning 5 Stars 2 The Captain is back. Steven Stamkos played in his first game since March. He was on the ice for less than 3 minutes but managed to score the Bolts 2nd goal. Tampa Bay leads the series 2-1.

I just confirmed that tests were conducted Monday and no USF players came back positive. This is solely based on the ND players coming up positive on Monday.

USF at FAU has been postponed. I don't know how this crap works, but to my knowledge no USF players have tested positive. In his presser, today, Jeff Scott announced the postponement. He stated that this involves contact tracing issues partially related to the USF/Notre Dame game, last Saturday. 7 Notre Dame players tested positive on Monday.

Well, seeing how Notre Dame is cancelling with just 7 players testing positive and the restraints being presented by the Big Ten's requirements for return to play. Willie and company would not be playing in either scenario where having 85 players means nothing.

Willie Taggart says the USF/FAU game will be played as long as he has enough players to field a team. Thursday's round of tests will tell the tail.

This is weird. The NCAA is not listing any Big Ten games on their web site.

Temple at Navy Lamar at Rice

Lightning 3 Stars 2 The Bolts grab an early 3-0 lead then hold off a Dallas comeback. The series is tied 1-1.

It looks like the disturbance in the north Atlantic west the Azores consisted of the remnants of Paulette and has reformed as a tropical storm.

And now it is back on.

Note that the cancelled Houston at Baylor game was a last minute replacement for the Houston/Memphis game that was postponed due to a breakout at Memphis.

It was announce yesterday that due to the COVID outbreak at FAU the USF at FAU game has been cancelled.

I watched Jeff Scott's post game presser this morning. It turns out that all three of their long snappers were unavailable for the game. They were using a backup center, that had never snapped long. I wondered why Trent Schneider, who usually booms punts, was coming up short a lot, though he did kick a 65 yarder the punt before the first extra long snap. After the first extra long snap, where Schneider took a pretty good shot, Scott decided he'd need his punter for conference play and pulled him in favor of a backup, before Schneider got killed.
