COVID-19 cases are increasing in Wisconsin, and as a result the Packers have no plans to allow fans at Lambeau Field. Although the team had previously been optimistic about the possibility of having fans, Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy said it's just not realistic with the worsening situation in Wisconsin.

As I said I didn't watch it very long but I kind of liked it without all the meaningless babble. As a rule I don't listen to the commentary even thought I know it's there.

beast (24m) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (25m) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (26m) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (4h) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (4h) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (4h) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (6h) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (6h) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (6h) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (9h) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (10h) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

beast (19h) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (19h) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (19h) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (20h) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21h) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21h) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (21h) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (23h) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : what's so funny?

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : Looks like Lions OC Ben Johnson is going to be the Bears coach

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : TD but another failed 2 pt conversion!

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : Ravens still alive, but barely

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Or not...BUT THAT CATCH BY NACUA

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : WE MAY HAVE BEEN PREMATURE KANATA

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Time to make dinner

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Ouch!!!! Dagger for the Eagles

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : DAGGER

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : pass plays

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Seems some of their passes are too deep. Reminds me of MLF as well.

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Oren Burks with a clutch pass break up...I will now light myself on fire

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : a run on 2nd down and 17 from McVay? So that's where MLF gets it from!

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Do or die time for the Rams

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Kicking field goals are impressive

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Oh that might be a backbreaker

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : That's what I thought too, just wasn't sure

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Kicking doesn't make much sense
