I hope so...they've got my ticket money.

Not seeing anything online, I assume games are still in Spring?  I think it'll benefit the FCS this year.  Not only should it probably be safer to play in the Spring but if all of the FBS changes and plays in the Fall, they'll be the main show in college football come Spring.  I don't think logistically it'll work past 2021 but given the situation, it might be good for the FCS.

They are allowed to practice this fall, even with no games.  I don’t think practice translates to a fall season, unless there are additional rumors.  If it is in the spring, in addition to Salukiworld’s comments, there is probably a greater chance to have fans at games.

It's a shame we didnt get to play Kansas...think we had a great chance to beat them. They got whipped by Coastal Carolina.

In February it could be sunny and 70 at the start of the game and snowing, sleeting by the end.

Any update on what's going on with the football team? Bowl teams' seasons are almost over. Even Illinois and Northwestern got modified seasons finished.

I'm assuming that the FIU transfer QB, Stone Norton, will be enrolled for next semester.  I also assume that he already has a playbook in his possession.  If Nick runs this kid out for the Feb 20 game, it'll mean that he is, hands down, the most talented QB we have.  If not, I guess we can say that kid is human.  Anywho, I'm excited for the QB room and especially excited for the Fall 2021 QB room with the frosh recruit added in.
