University of Alabama have had over 560 students test positive since the school re-opened for students lastweek. Some US states only had that many positvies from populations of millions. University of Alabama has a student population of 40,000.

Now over 1000!
 
Sep 12 for the ACC, Sep 26 for SEC & Big12.

Big 10 considering a thanksgiving start using dome stadiums in the region.

I can't see Them getting through the season. It might start but it will have to be abandoned
Big12 are also back Sep 12 with the ACC, but dont play in conference games till week 4.

Ill do a week 1 thread in the next few days. but only looks like the monday game will be shown.
 
Wow I have been pretty excited for the start of the college season thinking it was only around the corner, didn't think SEC and Big 12 started late. FFS
 
Thats if schools can keep players safe. Aubrun had to cancel practices this week since 13 players tested positive lastweek.

This season will have a massive * on it. and more players from schools who still want to play have already left and announced they are entering the draft. LSU just lost another WR

During a State College Area school board of directors meeting on Monday night, Wayne Sebastianelli — Penn State’s director of athletic medicine — made some alarming comments about the link between COVID-19 and myocarditis, particularly in Big Ten athletes. Sebastianelli said that cardiac MRI scans revealed that approximately a third of Big Ten athletes who tested positive for COVID-19 appeared to have myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle that can be fatal if left unchecked.

“When we looked at our COVID-positive athletes, whether they were symptomatic or not, 30 to roughly 35 percent of their heart muscles (were) inflamed,” Sebastianelli said. “And we really just don’t know what to do with it right now. It’s still very early in the infection. Some of that has led to the Pac-12 and the Big Ten’s decision to sort of put a hiatus on what’s happening.”

“You could have a very high-level athlete who’s got a very superior VO2 max and cardiac output who gets infected with COVID and can drop his or her VO2 max and cardiac output just by 10 percent, and that could make them go from elite status to average status,” Sebastianelli said. “We don’t know that. We don’t know how long that’s going to last. What we have seen when people have been studied with cardiac MRI scans — symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID infections — is a level of inflammation in cardiac muscle that just is alarming.”
