So those FCS programs that mock the Ivies for shunning the 1-AA football playoffs will meekly follow suit.

The whole season's gonna get postponed in the near future. You just can't have a season where teams never know which players can play or whether their team is even going to play in a particular week. Not being able to plan for basically anything is an untenable logistical nightmare.

I suppose it's possible the COVID situation could be better by September, but that looks unlikely. Even if it is, having large football crowds will undoubtedly make things worse again. They could play with minimal/no fans, of course, but only the P5 schools with their big media contracts could even hope to survive that financially.

UNI loses a big game with Iowa. $650K payout gone. No Iowa - Iowa State game either. So the B10 cancels two in state bus trips. But Iowa can go to Columbus or Happy Valley. And Nebraska can go to Rutgers:dunce:

Not that we were going to have football this year anyway.

It will be a struggle for the P5 to survive as well. Oregon State said earlier this week that 80% of their total athletic budget is from the revenue generated by football. At Oregon (and across the Pac-12) it is more like 70-75%, which still makes it a large hole to overcome.

No it isn't because there might never be a vaccine. There are numerous corona viruses, and not 1 of them has a vaccine. And if there's never a vaccine, football will be played again, and in front of full crowds at some point. If there's not football in 2020, sometime in 2021 there will be football, be it a postponed 2020 season, or 2021 season, virus or no virus, vaccine or no vaccine..

Damn, that is the highest I-AA payout I've ever seen. Is that the highest? I vaguely remember ASU getting $600k from LSU in 2008, the year after ASU beat Michigan, which would be $700+k inflation adjusted in today's dollars. JMU's (copied and pasted off the JMU board, with 600k at L'ville next year the highest):

TBD UNC $500,000
2025 Virginia Tech $TBD
2022 Louisville $600,000
2020 UNC $500,000
-------------------------
2019 West Virginia $550,000
2018 N.C. State $425,000
2017 East Carolina $300,000
2016 UNC $410,000
2015 SMU $425,000 + travel
2014 Maryland $325,000
2013 Akron $300,000
2012 West Virginia $350,000 + ticket incentives
2011 UNC $350,000
2010 VT $400,000-450,000
2009 Maryland $300,000?
2008 Duke $150,000?
2007 UNC $350,000

BTW, this makes little sense. Some examples:
-Clempson can fly to @ BC, but can't go 1.5 hrs to play USC.
-Free Shoes U can fly to play other ACC, but can't play UF 2 hrs away.

No it isn't because there might never be a vaccine. There are numerous corona viruses, and not 1 of them has a vaccine. And if there's never a vaccine, football will be played again, and in front of full crowds at some point. If there's not football in 2020, sometime in 2021 there will be football, be it a postponed 2020 season, or 2021 season, virus or no virus, vaccine or no vaccine..
Ok...cats outta the bag until numbers are driven down to a manageable TTTQ and/or curative level.

Eh, aren't they already there in Germany but they still won't let people into the soccer stadiums and they're only playing top level soccer, not all the lower levels?
