In “Bull Durham,” Crash Davis taught Nuke LaLoosh well.
“Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose and sometimes it rains.”
College football’s COVID version of that is sometimes you win, sometimes you lose and sometimes the game is called because of contact tracing.
December arrives with the College Football Playoff very much undetermined. Usually, the committee announces the pairings the day after the first Saturday of December. This year, the sport will play two additional December weekends, meaning no announcement until December 20.
Even more strange. The pairings will be determined not just by who teams played and how they fared, but by games NOT played.
