Here's the synopsis...The Management Council recommended lowering the amount of permissible contests for the entire academic year. Nothing has been totally finalized, but a meeting tomorrow could yield more details. The proposal is for a 25% reduction of games...That would pave the way for a 7 or 8 game regular season in football.

Not really expecting an answer but it isn't unrealistic to encounter this situation. School A in conference 4 works out an 8 game schedule. After 4 games a serious outbreak of C19 on campus causes school A to suspend for the remainder of the term. Are their remaining games forfeited? Is that fair to teams that may have lost to them ? Are their games erased in total ?

Example: Cal hosts St. Anselm (NE-10) in Week 1 2020 as the return game from their trip to Manchester last season. Presuming Cal doesn't have an OOC contract lined up in 2021-2022, then the St. Anselm at Cal game is likely the season opener for 2021.
Conversely, if a team is starting the front-half of a home-and-home series in 2020, then the affected game would likely be moved to 2022.
Naturally, this depends on how the change affects the opponent's schedule, but that's my guess as to how this plays out.Cal U (Pa.) Class of 2014

I will be very surprised if schools in politically conservative states, especially the South, don't go whole hog for whatever the NCAA permits including tailgates and packed stadiums. The ACC and SEC are still pissed off about no MARCH MADNESS.Cal U (Pa.) Class of 2014

To be fair, the impacts of COVID-19 are significantly less in some of those southern states (Florida, Texas as examples) compared to New York City, part of which was because of the high number of cases and fatalities in New York State's nursing homes. Plus, most major cities in southern states (mainly Dallas, San Antonio, Nashville) aren't as densely packed as older Northeastern or Midwestern cities (New York City, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, etc.) or West Coast cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, which, in my layman opinion, has helped to flatten the curve down south compared to the Northeast.

Since Championship Weekend essentially is a regular season week for the non-divisional winners, then the likely scenario is that Week 1 OOC games will be cancelled for 2020. I'd suspect that any contracts for 2020 would be either honored in 2021 or some other alternative depending on whether it's the back-half of a home-and-home series.
Example: Cal hosts St. Anselm (NE-10) in Week 1 2020 as the return game from their trip to Manchester last season. Presuming Cal doesn't have an OOC contract lined up in 2021-2022, then the St. Anselm at Cal game is likely the season opener for 2021.
