So far the MAC, Mountain West, Big Ten, and Pac Twelve are moving to spring.
Do you think any of of the other six conferences will be moving to spring? If so, which ones?

RE: Will any other football conferences move to spring?
IMO, nobody is actually moving to Spring, in the sense of actually playing Spring games.

I also think it very likely that nobody will actually play this Fall either. The conferences saying they will play later this month and in March are both IMO blowing smoke.

Sadly, the most likely outcome is that we don't see any CFB until August 2021. That's not what should happen - IMO we should have a full Fall 2020 football season - but it's what I think will happen, given the liberal and fearful mindset of most college administrators.

With an actual surge during "flu' season, I don't think conditions will be better in the spring, so its hard to see anyone who cancelled now playing in January and February.

Don't think its any coincidence that the worst outbreaks right now are south of the equator in Latin America and South Asia where its winter.

Spring will not happen. It is Fall or bust.
That is another reason some conferences aren't so quick to wave the white flag.

No, the idiots are the covidoids who want to shut the country down over a disease that kills about 1 in 300 people, if no precautions at all are taken.

It's not really feasible to play in the spring and then have a regular season in the fall.
Holding out the hope of a spring season is just holding the carrot out to move the wagon a little farther down the road.
