Yes they do what does that have to do with a lethal pandemic that has already taken 130,000 American lives!? You probably aren't stupid but keep posting like that and people might start thinking you are.

Also Vandy, but most people don't consider that football.

No no, you're wrong... I have reliable sources that tell me Michigan is hoping to be the Boise of the Midwest.
Don't mind at all you giving me credit for their former AD's "Boise of the South" goal, or Malzahns "top 25 every year promise", and his anyone saying I am going to leave after one year does not know me comment.
You can throw in their current AD's "when" not "if" and "sooner" not "later" promise to be the top G5.
Late in the 4th quarter in your game this year don't be giving any of them credit for my prediction that whoever gets the ball last in this game if there is enough time left wins the game, or that your fans are going to leave that game very, very impressed with their talent. Assuming of course there is a game.

Of course my prediction could change if either defense shows they have improved drastically since last season.
Listening to their DC he says because of all the injuries last year, that forced them to switch from a 4-3, to a 3-4 mid-season, you are going to see a drastic improvement in their defense.
Unless you can say the same, it might not be in reach late because you have no chance of containing their offense......zero.

Better listen to him folks. He has been proven right on just about everything he predicts. Other former predictions of Semi Indian...
1. "ASU has another nationally televised game on a Tuesday night this year, and many more to follow."
2. "Looks like both parties have decided that there is money to be made in creating the Boise of the South."
3. "Sorry it was not Memphis but what can I say, it just wasn't. Maybe you can be the next Arkansas State."
4. "When ASU gets to the point they are in the top 25 on a regular basis, like several years, then you can start worrying about Gus leaving, but not until then."

We give you credit for falling for it. And we give you credit for trolling our board with it, spouting it over and over and over. Shucks, we even give you credit for all your condescending passive-aggressive remarks directed at this fanbase. We’re a generous sort.

It's easier to cut something that you lose money on anyway... Especially the sport you lose the most on.

With them cancelling all fall sports, not even basketball will be played before Jan. 1st.

The Ivy League has different motivations than the Power 5 but those schools have a lot of pull with university presidents of all schools. With them moving all athletics to 2021 its probably better than 50/50 that college football isn't played in the fall.
The cluster**** that is MLS with one team kicked out of the season and one other about to be after the season has started is being noticed by all sports leagues.
