Despite the current uncertainty brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, the NFL released it’s full 2020 schedule on Thursday with no adjustment to the time frame of the season. That should encourage Texas Tech football fans because it is hard to envision the NCAA proceeding with its football schedule if the NFL were to decide to cancel or move its season.
But what is interesting is the fact that the NFL has scheduled no division games in the first four weeks of the season. Thus, if there has to be a shortened 12-game schedule, the integrity of the divisional races will remain.
