The austerity has begun. Looks like MAC football players will have to sleep at home prior to home games. A real hit for the "home field advantage."

Some people are coming up with solutions that lack a problem. If the university is open for classes, clubs, dining halls and dorms, I don't see what the point is to extreme social distancing.

At FBS and major basketball schools, both teams spend the night in a hotel before the game. I think for some it's a way to decrease home field advantage, for others an easy way to chaperon the roster.

OK, maybe I misunderstood. I was confused by "stay at home". "Stay in their dorms or apartments" would have been more exact. That makes sense health wise. And saves money.
