Any chance NC State could fill in for a team in one of the games on Friday or Saturday if there is more chaos?
Holiday Bowl canceled tonight
- Thread starter grazhoppa
- Start date
When is the last time prior to 2020 that a game has been cancelled because a position group is sick?
I highly doubt the whole position group is sick. They just didn't want to play, and should be financially punished.
Yep
how many of the 750K died from Covid and how many died WITH Covid. Thats a number that should have been separated.
Can’t watch when they aren’t playing. That’s my take on his comment.
No. He’s not a puss though. He’d play Will Swinney at DT if he had to in order to play. He understands there is more to the big picture than one loss
This is all about liability. It’s an utter joke and beyond ridiculous, but that’s what it comes down to. Until the rules of Covid testing change, college sports are dead.
Really?
You mean you might 'catch something' in a day or two, or week or two that you don't happen to have right now?
Cutting edge science right there
Just got to Mom & Dads in Anderson…my old man already started in on the wife about her school bailing. He couldn’t resist because when we left Sacramento at 6 am, things were good to go and she traveled all decked out in UCLA gear. LOL.
I’d better start drinking right now. This is going to be a fun week.

I thought with all the restrictions in California, it was impossible to get COVID.
These guys don’t have COVID 19. They have a form for the coronavirus. Big difference.
At this point, saying “safety first” is a BS cop out. This isn’t about safety. It’s about appearances only.
If all of UCLAs DLineman tore their ACLs they morning of game day, could they cancel the game? I think not. Man up and play with what you have or forfeit.

Remember when Maryland played a LB at QB against us because they didn't have anybody else? What happened to those days?
Move a back up OL over there and play the game you bunch of sissies.

This varient has a survival rate of well over 99%. I think the hospitalzation rate is 1%
maybe they should vote that the teams that got to play in their bowl keeps the entire revenue and not have to share.
I'm fully vaccinated. My wife is fully vaccinated. My mother is fully vaccinated. Everyone in my family is vaccinated. Did I say anything negative about vaccines?
Remember when Cliff Ellis played against Duke with 4 players due to suspensions and players fouling out?
i know…this was a jerk move by UCLA but i hate NCSU so i struggle to feel bad for them
Fortunately causing everyone to awake from the covid propaganda.
Below age 65 99.9% survival rate.
Overall there is 99.8% survival rate.
But we are endemic ... the vax only works for 2-3 months for Delta - none on Omicron.
I doubt any more bowl games will be played this year. All because of a virus no worse than a cold. I quit!
We have 700K excess deaths. Average age of COVID death - 80 and average age of all deaths is 79.5. This means that 30-40% of deaths would have happened anyway in the next year. Also ...
- Suicides are way up
- Drug overdoses are way up
- Alzheimers deaths up
... not to mention other
So we probably have about 400K deaths. This 800K number is completely bogus - have to compare to baseline deaths from 2015-2019 and substract out excess deaths that are not relevant to COVID that are up.
if we get cancelled tomorrow, PLEASE get Dave D on the phone and lets play the wolfies again.
no fancy bowl game, lets just settle this
they have a ways to go before challenging us in the ACC

Pretty sure that was Rick Barnes against UNC. Maybe it happened to Ellis too. I don't know.
No shit. That and viruses have to morph as to not kill the host.
The way we are currently handling this virus is insane. We will pack the stands but we won’t let non-sick elite athletes or guys with sniffles play football?!? Most of whom are vaccinated. It’s crazy.
Dr. Fauci is the biggest criminal this country has ever seen and the majority of the country takes his word like it’s gospel. This shit is so stupid
Nc state wants a replacement. Has til Jan 5 per rules , hate state but they deserve a chance to play. Sorry to much bourbon trying to type is a challengee
People who still think this is OK and support the amount of testing that is forced on our country must really live life scared. The survival rate was 99% prior to vaccines and will continue to be that high with vaccines. Time to move on. Forcing these athletes to test and forcing quarantine is tired, old, and it is beyond time to remove masks, stop the testing, and live normally. These kids don’t deserve this shit nor do the fans.
