    Big Ten is only playing conference games. That’s been the rumor and will be official this afternoon.

    I look for other conferences to follow suit.

    That’s pretty likely. This basically gives everyone 13/14 weeks to play 9/10 games. Those games also don’t have to be on a Saturday since there isn’t going to be any fans. So basically this buys flexibility which if this is going to happen at all is vital.

    There’s going to be some marquee matchups lost (Ohio St and Oregon I saw).

    As a UK fan I would hate it because we lose playing Louisville. KSR was speculating that the out of conference games would be replaced with SEC West opponents (which knowing Kentucky would be Alabama, LSU, and Texas A&M.)

    I’m with you my guess is those games aren’t replaced.

    Who will Notre Dame play? I assume their ACC opponents and Navy (somewhere but not in Ireland). Anyone else?

    ACC just did the same thing and are taking Notre Dame into the conference per report.

    I mean, I understand it. But kinda silly that it's okay for Ohio State to go play Maryland, but they can't play Bowling Green.

    Almost better to blow up the conferences this year and let each team schedule regionally. I know that wouldn't work realistically, but it's going to be a mess anyway.

    It’s not about travel, it’s about control. Without a central governing body to line everyone up, each conference is as good as you can do.

    There's not going to be any College Football. What fantasy world are you people living in?

    Notre Dame will not have to play anyone and be ranked #1 all season.

    Well, that WOULD make them undefeated.

    The ACC will accommodate ND but other independents like New Mexico State and UMASS will probably be up the creek.
