No PL action this Autumn, should we do another league that will (try at least) to play this season?
Thoughts/ideas?
There is an FCS game on ESPN tonight: Austin Peay at Central Arkansas.

Yes. The season is on a ventilator, but might as well have fun with the few scheduled games. Do you give BC an extra point in the spread against teams from hot spot states? How many projected starters who are in quarantine should certainly effect the play on the field, so there are many new variables to make a "pick 'em" interesting even is the PL is benched for the year.

By all means, let's start the competition-- perhaps as Lord High Commissioner you could select games from various conferences, a half dozen a week, to make it a little more interesting.

I say run the pick ‘ em. Maybe go ACC. It’ll give me a reason to watch as we ease back into normalcy thru the fall.
And for tonight’s game, “Let’s Go Peay“.

One of the best college cheer of all-time, that started when James "Fly" Williams was playing hoops for the Governors in the early 70's
Fly is Open!
Let's Go Peay!

Will be more fun if you can pick a third option for each game which is “game cancelled.” Add a little variety to your normal pick ‘em.

OK....ACC and/or SEC seem to make the most sense...FCS is sort of all ovah the place right now....first FBS game isn't until next Thursday/weekend....open to other ideas/suggestions...try to get this settled by Monday or so.

If there were those who wanted to do this, I'd give out a shot...but my heart (and brain - such as it is) would not be in it.

Holy Cross got votes in the FCS Top 25 poll. Oh well. Just our luck. We finally have a really good team in something and the season gets cancelled. Starting to think we might be jinxed. |
