Cal - washington Cancelled

[StevensTechU]

Cal reportedly with an outbreak. Bummer. I looked forward to watching the bears beat on the huskies.

This seems odd if its just 1 player at this point. I'd think the League/School would just increase the frequency of the testing to ensure the players are safe.

From other sources, there was one positive but the whole position group is now under observation. Sounds a bit harsh, but I also don't know all the details.

Well it is Kalifornia...

The media report I heard was one DB tested positive and was in a meeting room with all DB’s, so by PAC rules for playing during Covid all exposed players are out for 14 days. Meaning Cals next game with one of the Arizona schools wiill be canceled also. It might be a long 7 game season.

Cal has a real shot at an undefeated season. 1-0 is a real possibility.

Several players have to be placed into isolation because of course contact to the infected player. They no longer have enough scholarship players to play

Yes but if Alabama can test Saban every single day to get him to coach, it seems they had more than enough time to test those players who had to isolate.

The nfl has also said that they have zero evidence of on field transmission.

I listened to Jon Wilner interviewed on KJR and, according to him at least, the only reason this game was cancelled was due to contact tracing/quarantine rules specific to Berkeley. Had this exact same scenario happened at any other school in the conference, including other teams in the state of California, the game would have been played. I don't know for sure if he is accurate with that assessment (I don't know the exact rules in Eugene, for example), but that is what he said.

This would make more sense because based on what we've seen from the other sports leagues, daily testing should help determine if anyone who was considered to be in close contact has likely gotten it.

And now Utah-Arizona is off. No bueno.

5 game season? I vote to cancel.

Since it doesn't count for using up eligibility as long as it's safe I still want to see the Ducks. Consider it a pre spring football season.

At this point, playoffs are likely off the table.

I’d almost prefer the pac just so it’s own thing and if games get cancelled, just postpone. And maybe we play until February to get all our games in but at least we play 8-10 when it’s all said and done
