This is why the Big 10 destroyed their football season and arguably set their conference back for years...

Link: https://www.espn.com/college-footbal...-played-safely

Quote:
One specific area of concern for the NCAA is myocarditis, a condition that causes inflammation of the heart muscle that could be linked with the coronavirus.

The condition is usually caused by a viral infection, including those that cause the common cold, H1N1 influenza or mononucleosis. Left undiagnosed and untreated, it can cause heart damage and sudden cardiac arrest, which can be fatal. It is a rare condition, but the COVID-19 virus has been linked with myocarditis with a higher frequency than other viruses, based on limited studies and anecdotal evidence since the start of the pandemic.
A "rare condition" and its connection to COVID-19 is "based on limited studies and anecdotal evidence".

The NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL, international soccer leagues, etc. apparently don't share the same concern.

And neither does the ACC...

Quote:
The chair of the ACC medical advisory group believes a fall season can be played safely, which is one of the biggest reasons the league remains on course to start the season in September.

Dr. Cameron Wolfe, a Duke infectious disease specialist, told Sports Business Daily that doctors have learned enough over the past six months to manage the risk.

"We believe we can mitigate it down to a level that makes everyone safe," Wolfe told The Daily. "Can we safely have two teams meet on the field? I would say yes. Will it be tough? Yes. Will it be expensive and hard and lots of work? For sure. But I do believe you can sufficiently mitigate the risk of bringing COVID onto the football field or into the training room at a level that's no different than living as a student on campus."

I honestly can’t believe how cowardly this country has gotten. 55 years old, been battling cancer since 17 years old. It’s in my lungs, bones. Kidneys, colon, thyroid and lymph nodes. I wouldn’t have lived past 21 if I had been living in fear of an illness that has a much higher mortality rate. GROW SOME BALLS PEOPLE and live for today, tomorrow is not promised.

I don’t claim that COVID is a hoax, I have no problem wearing a mask and social distancing to an extent, but I agree with this 100%. I’m not going to live in fear. I have a son that’s about to turn 1 and I’m not going to drive myself crazy over this.

Basically all of the relevant teams in college football other than Ohio State, in terms of recent CFP appearances... Clemson, Alabama, LSU, Oklahoma, Georgia, Notre Lame, etc. will still be playing this fall...

The Big 10 and Pac 12 (if they stupidly decide to cancel their season as well) have just given themselves an SMU-like death penalty that will have many long term consequences for both conferences.

Nebraska and the @Big12Conference door may in fact be opening.

So the two conferences that pride themselves on academics ax the football season?

Just so you know, the amount of money that will cost colleges will be off the charts. And after this season when Nebraska has to go back the Big 10 would basically ass rape them for playing out of conference.

Good luck with that.

The guys who do play who will be eligible for the 2022 draft will sit out of next years season. They aren't gonna play two seasons in a calendar year then get ready for the draft etc.

This may end up being a bit of a death blow to college football.

What, pray tell, is making the B1G and PAC decisionmakers think that conditions are going to be any different eight months from now?

The MAC was already hitting a tipping point of people thinking they spent to much money on football and this will just propel that even faster.

The Big 10 is simple, the Ivy schools cancelled athletics and they see themselves right there with those schools.

The Pac is cancelling because they think like the Big 10 in that regard and also because well most of their schools are in very progressive areas.

It's really no coincidence than the 2 conferences that are the first to do this are the 2 that think highly of their academics.

This is all about the long game for them they think.

But now the NFL is gonna move to saturdays and realize "holy shit we're crushing on Saturdays" and they ain't giving that up.
