The PAC 12 has announced a return to play. Can’t find details at this point

The MAC is meeting to discuss return to play

The Houston @ Baylor game scheduled for today was postponed or canceled because BU couldn't meet the B12 Covid-19 standards.

Yeah, the locals basically said they had one position group that was too thin on personnel to safely play the game. This is the 4th game Baylor has had to cancel.

USF has paused all football activity due to contract tracing from its game against Notre Dame. They have a game at FAU this weekend which is now in doubt.

The Bulls are scheduled to be next up for the Beatcats.

Stop me if you’ve heard this 4 times before. Houston’s game for this weekend has been cancelled. This time it was North Texas cancelling on them. They’ve been trying to open the season for 4 weeks now and have also lost a game against Washington St. on the schedule.

Return of the PAC . & game season. Not sure what they'll do about Colorado. Boulder County shut down gathering of more than 10 people for 2 weeks.

Related: There will be no 6 win limitation on bowls this season. They can invite anyone. Free for all.

The PAC-12 "season" is to start 11/6/20, so there's probably a small window to have the county reopen.

Do they still need .500 record or better?

I think the answer is no. Normally I’d say a lot of bowls would invite regional teams but who know know if that’s even an advantage with the attendance rules currently going on.

There is one caveat. Bowl participants must have a qualifying APR.
