I dont see how they are gonna allow 100,000 people plus many move tailgating to get together less than a year after this madness.

In a survey conducted by Stadium, all 130 FBS athletic directors were asked to rank their optimism on the upcoming season being played from “1” (will not be played) to “10” (definitely will be played). Of the 130 ADs contacted during the past week, 112 participated in the anonymous survey.
None of the ADs gave lower than a “5” ranking (meaning a 50/50 chance there is no season). However, several admitted they probably provided a higher-numbered response because they wanted to remain positive and optimistic about having the season.
“I’m optimistic we’ll have a season,” a Power Five AD said. “But, ask me again in May what I think.”
The most popular response was a “7” ranking from 27 percent of the ADs, followed by an “8” ranking from 24 percent and a “5” ranking from 18 percent of the ADs.
Overall, Power Five conference ADs were less optimistic than their Group of Five conference counterparts in believing that a complete season would be played this fall, with 26 percent of the Power Five ADs giving a “5” ranking, compared to only 12 percent of the non-Power Five ADs. Two-thirds — 66 percent — of the Power Five ADs gave a “7” or lower ranking, compared to only 37 percent of the Group of Five ADs.

1. Most likely is that the cfb season WILL be played in some format. Entire AD budgets depend on that happening even in an abbreviated fashion. TV money will be BIG in this scenario.
2. My GUESS is we start our season on Oct 17 at Arkansas and we play 8 SEC games in 9 weeks ending at A&M on Dec 12. My GUESS for a schedule is below.
Oct 17 @ Arkie
Oct 24 State
Oct 31 OMiss
Nov 7 @ Florida
Nov 14 OPEN
Nov 21 Alabama
Nov 28 Carolina
Dec 5 @ Auburn
Dec 12 @ A&M
Dec 19 SECCG
3. I think it is unlikely any of those games will be played with a full stadium. My bet is home team has players/coaches/staff families plus cheerleaders and a band. Visiting teams get 100 tickets period.

....or at all

With the advent of 15 min tests having games without fans should be relatively straight forward.
And with how much of the money is tv based they’ll go without fans, or with limited fans, before they don’t play at all’s

I think a big issue is if the teams can practice and prepare before then.

Same thing but even more so. You don’t need anyone but the team, coaches, and training staff for practice. Have everyone take a test to make sure they’re clean and then get to work

Sick people and health care workers are having a hard time getting a test done. Lack of reagents due to supply chain disruptions make widespread availability of testing unlikely for many months. The same is true for health care worker protective gear. The death toll come mid-summer is going to make it very unlikely people are going to want to congregate at stadiums. At my golf club members don't even want to put two people in a golf cart, and that's in the open air. As much as I hate this, football won't resume until 2021.
