DRC: Breaking (updated with story) -- UNT's game at UAB canceled

[Withers940]

So the game is strait up cancelled? Why not push it to the end of the season and cancel bowl games?

 

Bowl games don't have any merit this season anyways considering you don't have to have 6 wins to play in them

Three games in a row. The labs running the tests must be from Midland trying to take our football away.

I don’t get the calls to end the season. Makes no sense to me. This year is a free year for all. They should play as much as possible and cancel when needed.  To throw it all away is short sighted.

Am from Midland. Can confirm

Why is there even a conference championship game? How can you determine who plays in it?

What's worse, that the game was cancelled or that I was right again?

The Ivy League just did this. ODU got this right. We, and everyone else, had no business playing football this season. 

i thought CUSA would have thrown in the towel before the season started

I wonder if anyone considered moving the UAB game to Apogee ?

Moving the UTEP game was put on the table because we just didn't want to enter the El Paso hotbed.  The UTEP roster was fine.

UAB has some positive cases right now (not sure how many).  This is a different scenario from UTEP where the team(s) probably don't want the possibility of direct exposure on the field.

Get ready...the same thing is going to happen to basketball.

 

Gonna be really interesting to see how the vaccines play into this.  Not sure what the timeline is on this Pfizer release (and public reception).

We're a young team.  Every game they get to play is beneficial.

I’ve heard projections of March for the general public.  They’ll go out to first responders and people of high risk first.  I don’t expect vaccines to save this year’s basketball season.
