The cancellation couldn't have happened to a more deserving program, though I wish they were playing in the inaugural Kandahar Bowl instead.

Rutgers will do it.

They can play in the MCB if Purdue wimps out - since their best players opted out it wouldnt surprise me

Not until enough free people of the world stand up and say no more.

What sucks even more is This was the only sporting event scheduled for today in any sport, college or pro, men or women.

This ^^^ Ruined my 'vegetate in front of the TV' schedule for today.

Never, can only be a 'live with minor COVID variants' world. If/when we decide to grow a spine.

Then it's a good day to watch some of those Hallmark Christmas movies with your wife

Something tells me it will get worse every 2 to 4 years

Someone check the caulk on the Politics subforum; the cesspool is leaking out again.

Want it to stop? Get rid of the bowls and go to a 32 team playoff. Until then the trend of players opting out and teams canceling due to covid will continue

32?

 

[wmcovol]

A big surge could occur after these guys get back from Xmas break.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

32?

Yup, the 10 conference Champs get automatic bids, they get the top 10 seeds by ranking and the remaining top 22 teams get in seeded by ranking

There are some schools, Hawaii being one, that were going to cancel as soon as someone sneezed.

No bowl for my BC Eagles, sadly

Never say never. When Purdue pulls out of the MCB, maybe BC will take their place

 

[Boston Vol]

UVA/SMU canceled as well

I like the optimism, but looks like BC is the team in protocols. Oh well, at least they would be guaranteed to not have a losing season…

 

[vols-1]

Bowl games become meaningless when every .500 team makes a bowl. They should at least put the lower tier bowl games on campus.

I bet if the Bowl sponsors paid a big nil stipend to the teams/players these players might change thier tune

BC is the ones that have covid -- I still say Memphis can replace Purdue and MCB should put them on notice right now
