If Big Ten football is back on, Trump should talk nonstop about his role in bringing it back. This will lock PA, WI, MI and probably MN for him. IA, NE, IN, and OH are already in his colum. IL and MD are lost causes and nobody here cares about Rutgers anyway.

My "hope" for big ten foolsball is that it's simply eliminated. That's my "wish" for all collegiate sports. Sports on the college level is just as obscene as pro sports.

Monkeys who can neither read nor write are processed through and graduated from a college for no other reason than they can run 100 yards in record time.

What a joke.

“If the leadership council signs off on the proposal made by the medical subcommittee, which consists of experts and athletics directors, the entire council of presidents and chancellors could vote on restart plans as soon as Sunday. But there is no guarantee the proposal will move past the subcommittee stage.”

I don’t have a lot of hope for a fall football season. The way the Big Ten politburo dithers it will be next year before they can make a decision. Players will bolt to conferences that are actually playing or go pro. Frankly, I don’t really care anymore. I may actually go to a High School game or 2 this year if my governor permits it.

Clemson (Notre Dame long shot), Alabama (LSU long shot), Ohio State and Oklahoma (Texas long shot) should make for a decent playoff this year. They’d probably have to take the conference champions from the big 4 conferences.

They finally figured out how much money they’re losing outweighs assuaging the virus-panicked libs in those college towns. The PAC-12 will soon follow.

You’ll also start hearing TV stories about how the increased infection rates at those universities isn’t as bad as predicted, and that campuses will be opening up for spring semester or winter quarter.

College football is huge in many ways. Popularity. Jobs. Thousands of incomes —ranging from university finances to the neighborhood restaurants and ancillary businesses that survive only because of the fall football season.

And then, there’s the politics of it all. Many govs and U presidents hope to stifle business to hurt the Prez.

If they’d name the championship the Bish Bowl after the Gov of MI, everyone would watch.

Nobody cares. To come back with a bunch of BLM crap, covid crap, etc. They already screwed the pooch. Stay closed for all I care.

Looks like the ‘opium of the people’ will be back to keep them happy and controlled.

Of all the things to wish for (I prefer to pray) at a time when this country is less than two months from either becoming a nation of free people or a third world shite-hole ran by leftist dictators I would put the return of football at the very bottom of the list. Todays version of the Roman Gladiators and lions murdering Christians to amuse the public and divert their attention from the evil taking place around them is the last thing we need. It only serves to take our eyes off the ball. Today’s Caesars Pelosi, Biden, Schumer, and the rest of the leftist are salivating at the chance of stealing this election right under our noses as we are transfixed on football and worried only about our favorite team’s standing. Shame on us and God forgive us if we allow this to happen. Wake up Americans!

They jumped the gun thinking the rest of college football would follow suit. Instead the rest of college football yawned and said 'good luck with that, we'll be playing football'. And you can bet that those schools were getting it from all sides with both barrels. Student athletes distraught that their chance to maybe play football for the last time (or maybe in a few cases make a splash and go pro), parents, boosters, student fans, TV, everyone.

This face saving 'oh wait, science says we can proceed now! how smart we were to wait until the science was sound!' move is so transparent. They will be playing.

Just turned on the K-State Arkansas State game. They appear to have about 50% of their stadium capacity filled in Manhattan. Lincoln Nebraska is a little less than a three hour drive from Manhattan. Hey Big 10 pinhead academic leadership, what is different between Manhattan and Lincoln where their kids can be playing football front of fans and our kids are sitting in their bubble wrap safe spaces?

This crap is so infuriating! Free the B1G to play some football!!!

I think they should forego the actual playing of the game of football. Who needs that? Just have all the athletes lock arms while the public address announcer admonishes the crowd for white privilege, racism, black lives matter, etc. Instead of yard stripes paint BLM logos all across the field lest anyone should forget how terrible this country has always been. Have “people of color” sing the black national anthem, while the whites are told to kneel.

This will all be good. The players will then be able to feel at one with their NFL idols. The crowds will scream and holler in delight as their guilt is being purged.

As a bonus, have the local police departments send all their white officers so they can recite the black pledge of allegiance, pledging to refrain from arresting blacks in order to make up for 50,000 years of keeping their foot on the necks of blacks. Crime will go down, and prison populations will shrink. Everyone will feel safer and happier.

Only Trump stands in the way of a more polite society.

K-State football players did a BLM and “equal rights” and “unity” thing before their game against little Arkansas State, and then proceeded to lose to Arkansas State 35-31. Ha Ha!

If Big 10 plays at all this year it will be thanks to President Trump.
