I don't see giving them any credit, when one decides to back their way into playing for a championship, so I hope that wasn't the case.Accepting this as the final answer, one could now understand why MU played Rice last week with so many players out; they needed to stay within 1 game of FAU. Looks like a lot more thought has gone into all this, starting probably the early part of last week, to keep MU in the lead in the East and host the championship game. If so, some folks owe Hamrick and Doc a lot of credit for making it happen.
How many starters were out during the Rice game, in relationship to those that played their last game against UMASS? How many starters did Rice have out, besides their starting QB? This was a home game in-which the home team was favored by 24 points.Of course not, some wouldn't give them credit no matter what they did. Doc prepared a hurt team to play a game for the whole team. No credit there, I'm sure.
It was written a few weeks ago that the highest winning percentage wins the division. An FAU win tomorrow would give them the highest percentage 5-1 is 83%.`4-1 is 80%
I still think Chuck Landon is the person with all the knowledge. He and his son have connections.Who the hell knows what's going on with Herd football, ever?
covid quarantine is 14 days
This is not entirely accurate.
There are different levels of protocol.
Latest guidelines from the CDC is to quarantine 14 days from date of exposure, and you cannot test your way out sooner. Not sure which guidelines you're referencing?
Also states if you were withing 6 ft for more than 15 minutes while both individuals were wearing masks still doesn't get you out of the quarantine recommendations.
I was just getting ready to post this link: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bi...arantine-guidelines-for-14-10-and-7-days/amp/The guidelines have actually changed according to the CDC.
10 days if you had exposure with no symptoms and no test.
7 days if you had exposure no symptoms with a negative test.
I'm assuming that there's not 45 positives, but instead a crap ton of exposure. I'm sure there will be some who miss the game, but if the rest get back in that bubble then I'm confident we'll field more than enough for a team.
One of the biggest upsets in college football in some time. 24 point favorite ar home and get blanked and lose by 20. That is shittyHow many starters were out during the Rice game, in relationship to those that played their last game against UMASS? How many starters did Rice have out, besides their starting QB? This was a home game in-which the home team was favored by 24 points.
Seems like a few would prefer we don’t win the division or win the title.
It’s not ideal and not the best scenario but it’s beats the alternative as far as I am concerned.
Some of us don’t feel it’s legitimate if we can opt ourselves out of a game that we showed Saturday we have a solid chance of losing, thereby preserving our own divisional championship.
If we were just ravaged by covid, it would be different. But to me it feels like we’re taking advantage of the unique rules situation to keep from having to prove it on the field.
Agreed! Covid was just a small part of the issue, as put out by Marshall.Some of us don’t feel it’s legitimate if we can opt ourselves out of a game that we showed Saturday we have a solid chance of losing, thereby preserving our own divisional championship.

I can see where you're coming from, but Charlotte bailed on us a month ago, not even a full 2 days after being ready to play another game. And from the sound of it - it sounds like Charlotte was likely to have their own issues, we just jumped on the ball faster.
Oh yea we're screwing FAU. Did we not play? Did we not beat them?The problem is, we’re not screwing Charlotte, we’re screwing FAU. Just put yourself in THEIR position and tell me we wouldn’t be pissed.
That’s the thing, we usually do beat them...and then they win the East after we lose to an overmatched MTSU, or Charlotte, or a Rice, etc. If I’m Notre Dame/Clemson...I’m doing the same damn thing for the ACC championship game as Hamrick just did and remove any risk.Oh yea we're screwing FAU. Did we not play? Did we not beat them?

They had their chance to beat us and they didn't. We have all but what two of our originally scheduled games canceled?That’s the thing, we usually do beat them...and then they win the East after we lose to an overmatched MTSU, or Charlotte, or a Rice, etc. If I’m Notre Dame/Clemson...I’m doing the same damn thing for the ACC championship game as Hamrick just did and remove any risk.

I agree it seems odd, but as pointed out, the league signed off on it, as did the Charlotte AD. I am sure if anyone thought Marshall was pulling a fast one, the league would be all over us. We aren't their favorite and never have been. jmhoSome of us don’t feel it’s legitimate if we can opt ourselves out of a game that we showed Saturday we have a solid chance of losing, thereby preserving our own divisional championship.

We beat them when they had 57 players available to play.Oh yea we're screwing FAU. Did we not play? Did we not beat them?
