So far the Ivy League has moved their football season to the spring, B1G and Pac12 have limited games to conference matchups only and now it looks like NJCAA will probably move their football season to the spring.

If you come across any updates for other conferences, post ‘em here. 
I think making the change to spring will be a miserable disaster for them, and an unforced self-inflicted error.

Ivy League struggles to remain relevant anyway. But to compete against hoops and baseball? smh.

Its mid-July, way too early to make this call. We've seen how fast things can change back and forth.

I will laugh if the SEC joins the "conference-only" theme, which will kill aggy's chance at a winning season, IMO. With no cupcakes on the menu, they'll be forced to play all conference foes. This could be a very entertaining season. lol

On the flip side, there are a ton of logistics involved for planning college football team/staff travel. Decision need to be made pretty quickly, as we are now less than 8 weeks from the start of the season. I don’t think it (competition with hoops/baseball) matters too much from the Ivy League perspective, but P5 conference will need to take that into account if they make the decision to move their seasons to the spring. There is a very real chance that we don’t see collegiate sports in the Fall, and are slammed with them in the Spring.

Ohio State limits football game attendance to 20% with face coverings mandatory. Also no tailgating. This will be interesting to see unfold.

SEC going to conference only schedule. That will eliminate the UT/ LSU early season matchup. 

 
B1G to meet this week to discuss what direction they want to go.
