There is way too much time between now and the season for such a poll to really be meaningful.
But, assuming cases go down and there is a clear downward trend in the major metrics by July 1, I 100% believe we will see some form of college football this year. (Could be a few as 8 games spilling over into spring, and fans-in-the-stands would vary by state.)
The biggest obstacle right now to college football imo is that we get a new spike in cases/deaths in June. There is too much we don't understand about why there was a downward trend overall these last few weeks for me to say that such a spike is inevitable, but it really does seem like a strong possibility given the reopening policies in several states and-- much more alarming to me--the video/images of large numbers of people w/out masks ignoring the concept of social distancing in public places.
I'm not looking for meaningful results. I just want to read the temperature of the room.
My prediction: no football and UCF wins another national championship.
