Honestly I’m not sure if any non delusional people didn’t see this coming.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the NFL likely will move games from Sundays to Saturday, if college football doesn’t proceed this season. It’s unclear whether the games would be broadcast, streamed, or distributed on a pay-per-view basis, but the league likely would backfill the vacant Saturday windows with NFL content.

Trevor Lawrence gets it...

People are at just as much, if not more risk, if we don’t play. Players will all be sent home to their own communities where social distancing is highly unlikely and medical care and expenses will be placed on the families if they were to contract covid19 (1)

You must feel warm inside knowing that a future #1 pick in the NFL draft has opinions just as ridiculous as most of yours on the subject.

There is no money for the players. It’s non-essential. Forcing players to risk their health so others can make money? No way that’s happening in today’s environment.

He could be right about the expenses thing if the university is doing everything virtually, but the "social distancing is highly unlikely" thing is a complete guess. As opposed to what? Being on a football team and sharing a locker room with 100 other guys?

I was totally surprised when I moved down here. SEC football is the almighty, all consuming sport down here for so many.

All of the SEC except for Vanderbilt are public state schools and there will be intense political pressure to play the season.

Pay per view? Surely not. That would put the NFL on MLB level of stupidity from a business perspective.
