There goes Pitt’s first game. Maybe schedule Robert Morris as they are playing and having a hard time filling their schedule.

Schedule a team within driving range that would count towards bowl eligibility. If Bobby Mo fits that criteria, then do it.

I wouldn't get your hopes up for much of a season

We could schedule Temple.
But to be honest, that feels like a game we could easily lose.

Thanks captain obvious. Everyone knows this. But it’s still fun to talk Pitt FB even if there is just a small chance at a season. Even if just a partial season was played I would enjoy watching this team especially our talented D.

I just like MAC citing safety concerns when everyone knows it was a financial decision. Also, I don't expect schools to lose money so they can play football, so it's a smart decision, but just say the finances didn't make sense.

I just find it so hard to believe there would be a football season anywhere. Although I guess, if there’s a will, there’s a way as far as the ACC goes.

I think the SEC will make an attempt hell or high water. And I think most people do but I could be wrong.

This is just common sense and sometimes they're contingencies that come along in life. We don't like them but too many variables and obstacles to overcome but forced to accept them. H2P!

College football is about the fans and pageantry that goes along with it. I'd be very surprised if college football is played this year.

It’s about the money. Which is why this is strung out as long as it has been. It’s a business. Quite a big one.

I get your point - but if they saw a way to play they’d be playing even without fans in attendance.

Well the revenue that's made by the fans in these Big 10 schools stadiums is humungous.

I know the MAC isn’t in the same stratosphere but I was wondering if conferences were sitting around waiting for someone else to do it first.

Money is why they may attempt to have a season, and money (liability) is the reason for not.

Something is wrong with that picture.
