Our game with u of m was supposed to be Oct. 10 in East Lansing, now it's Oct. 3 at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor.

Fuck, I had a room reserved for that weekend at the downtown Marriott. I was still holding out a little hope that it would happen

there won't be football this year.

The fuck is wrong with you? 1. You still have the room. 2. You’re single. 3. Weekends in East Lansing

Might as well be on the road in the year where there will be no fans.

The bullshit thing will be when they just go with the original schedule next year and we have to play in that hellhole three years in a row.

Not that anyone is going to be playing anywhere this season anyway so whatever

Before anyone bitches about Michigan on the road, I’d prefer it that way this year with crowd size

Zzzzzzz

The season will be canceled. This is just posturing.

Not with that attitude there won't....

I mean the office workers at the big ten are getting paid. They had to do something

tell Couch that "Spartans Might" is for the ambivalent and the uncertain.

My first thought, too. Plus, football isn’t going to happen, anyway.

Nice of the Big Ten to correct that scheduling error that somehow only had us playing TWO of UM/OSU/PSU back to back. Now it's back to all three consecutively, with the switch of UM to Ann Arbor just for good measure (they did give us a bye in there, so let's thank them for their generosity).

But yeah, B10 scheduling is just random.

Shouldn't matter anyway as they can't possibly play the season.

As long as they adjust it going forward (with the game in EL in 2021), I'm fine with it.

We will have students on campus in the fall.

Thank you for enrolling and allowing us to bill you, especially for room and board. Now, if you don't mind, think about staying home.

Best,

MSU

But why did even need to fuck with the home and aways? Just plug in the extra games. Which is stoopid anyway, should of kept it division games only. Spread them out for BTN/TV revenue. GL getting through 10-games. I put it at a 0.33% probability of full schedule survival, repeating of course.

I see what you did there.

Do we have a shot at beating Minnesota this year? Win the opener and claim co-Big Ten Champs when they shitcan the rest of the season.

Feel like what I'm seeing from MSU is that they're already doing most of this (although obviously no clue who is performing the testing or if penalties are in place)

United asked for 3x/week testing - B1G just had a thing that said 2x/week (one within 3 days of games) - https://twitter.com/aaronmcmann/status/1291000609160732673?s=21

Only other thing I really haven't seen touched on currently/before is the % false negatives for testing

UM has been pushing to get the game flipped for awhile. Given the uncertainty of the season even happening, if Beekman agreed to this switch (with the schedule being altered going forward), then he's a genius.

Or we just got screwed for no reason.

JP opting out of season. SIAP.

Well written. Definitely more realistic than the Pac-10 players demands. I think they could of gone stronger on the economic side and used it as a bargaining chip, especially down the road.

Does do any of the current tests meet the false negative requirements? Shouldn't these requirements be reversed? Wouldn't this increase the rate of false positives on game day? See Stafford, Matt. Maybe I'm confused and the two aren't correlated.

looks like the start of a union

In-season testing of all of the above three days per week
Testing twice per week with an FDA-approved test with less than 1% false negatives
Additionally, testing on the day of competition (or within 24 hours of competition for each team that can be quarantined) with an FDA-approved test with less than 5% false negatives, with results delivered at least two hours before competition

Yeah, no idea on what tests meet their asks for % of false negatives. Most I've seen on false negatives is from testing too early and not what actual percentages may be.

Maybe someone told them about Title 9 as far as the economic bargaining, that's the biggest hurdle there...well, outside of smaller schools couldn't do it anyways and NCAA wanting to keep that chedda

This. I don't for a second believe we'll have a complete season and kind of immoral imo to watch a sport where they don't adequately compensate the players during a pandemic.
