[QUOTE="bke1984, post: 728323, member: 932"] Penalties? Like what? It’s real simple. Nothing is worse to these programs than the absence of football. The majority will go bankrupt. It’s that simple. So let’s say a conference decides to cancel football, but half the schools say to hell with that and play anyways. What’s the conference going to do? Fine them? Ban them from playing next year? Yeah, that’s worse than a year without football revenue... Give me a break man. The schools ARE the brand in college football. The NCAA doesn’t matter...the conferences don’t matter. The schools are what drive everything. If they decide to play, they will play and no one is going to stop them. They might not have 12 games, but the ones that decide to play will play. Even with empty stadiums. In fact, maybe empty stadiums make it more important. What if most of football is cancelled, but there are only 10 total games? What do you think the TV ratings would look like on those 10 games? Stop being so naive. The NCAA and the conferences have very little power...the schools have all the power. Some will play, some won’t. But it isn’t going to be up to anyone but the schools. [/QUOTE]
