welcome back Big 10

Reading Wilner's takes, he says if everything goes correctly the PAC could start early November, best case scenario is Halloween, but this is with everything going perfect. PAC has better testing then the NFL.
 
We are a getting a little off point in my discussion, my argument is that it is less controversial for the Pac12 to sit out. In fact, I imagine most of the West Coast could care less right now about football.

Buddy we got no choice. Our Governor has eliminated any and all entertainment, withheld students from going back to schools, extended the COVID emergency until....get this...November 3rd...

So it's hard for us out here to get our hopes up because at the end of the day, when the choice is made, it isn't about safety, it isn't about readily accessible testing, which the PAC has better then the NFL, it's about politics. Oregon has some of the lowest COVID numbers in the country and we are still unable to be in any location with more than 50 people. Don't even think the Ducks or beavers are allowed to practice.

Nothing opens up in Oregon until at least Nov 3rd. So sort of pointless to get our hopes up that anything positive happens before then because you are guaranteed disappointment.

I agree and that is the point that I am making. I feel bad for fans on here that care but your states are just messed up right now.

You seemed to have Strong opinion That most if not all conferences wouldn’t play. I’m basically calling you out for that opinion. That’s all
 
OlyDuck said:
also maybe worry more about your conference getting shit on by the Sun Belt.

As compared to your conference looking like chicken shit pussies led by liberal Cucks? I’ll take my situation any day of the week.

Be careful what you wish for:

Outside of the regular season, Ohio State has met with a southern opponent in 12 bowl games, including two national championships, three Citrus Bowls, three Sugar Bowls, one Cotton Bowl (Texas A&M was in the Big 12 at the time, same for the 1999 Sugar Bowl), one Hall of Fame Bowl, and one Outback Bowl and one very sad Gator Bowl. In those games, the Buckeyes are 4-8, with the biggest win coming against Alabama in that most recent playoff matchup, 42-35.

Of the 16 total matchups with current SEC opponents since 1980, Ohio State sits at a respectable 6-9-1, including a 4-4 record since that Missouri game in 1998. During that time, the Buckeyes have faced off with LSU and Alabama the most, three times a piece, taking a 1-1-1 record against the Tigers and a 1-2 record against the Crimson Tide. Texas A&M and Florida are up next with two games a piece, the former seeing Ohio State win both games and the latter seeing the Buckeyes lose both.

I remember you and OSU buckeyes were hammering it hard. Truly I don’t really care but it’d be nice to see both the pac and big grand play.

Based on what was happening early with baseball, I was convinced college football wasn't going to work. So far, I've been proven wrong. I can admit that.

If you go back in the old Hoop’s MLB board, I’m pretty sure I’m the only one that predicted they would get the full 60 games and playoffs in
 
So are we premature with the welcome back news?
