Will the NFL follow them?
I know financially that would be a disaster, BUT crowding into stadiums like that with screaming (many drunk) fans? A recipe for disaster

This never happened during the Spanish flu 1919, they played a shortened 6 game season.

Don't think they were planning for much fans anyways this season. It was whether to proceed with the season to keep the TV money coming in. This is why they cancelled preseason and all the international games,but kept the regular season games as planned.

So I guess we'll have 2 national champions. One for the fall, one for the spring
It's a joke

I don't know if they will follow suit but they may be subject to a lawsuit if one of the players sneeze. The decision to postpone the Big 10 and Pac 12 games was driven by fear of liability.

with some, education comes with LOGIC in face of facts.
quote: Then on Thursday afternoon, NCAA president Mark Emmert dropped a bombshell when he said he cannot see championships taking place in any fall sports – which include field hockey, men’s and women’s soccer, women’s volleyball and men’s and women’s cross country – because not enough schools are competing.
“Sadly, tragically that’s going to be the case this fall. Full stop,” Emmert said in a video posted to the NCAA’s Twitter page. “That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t and can’t turn toward winter and spring and say, ‘How can we create a legitimate championship for those students?’ There are ways to do this. I am completely confident we can figure this out.”

I suspect NFL will follow MLB and play for television with no one in stands on a shortened schedule.

YES ANYONE taking pathology for a year, and learns all the POTENTIAL things that can, but do not go wrong with you, YES it is a miracle that it all works as long as it does without a thought from any of us.
