So yesterday only one antigen test confirmed by PCR, and today game is off. Questions:

1.  are people gaming the PCR confirmation by how many cycles, (i.e., the opposite of the "40 cycle false positive" disinformation meme?) (e.g., how Saban was PCR negative after his positive antigen test in October)

2. nobody is applying an "eye test" to the "do we got a covid problem" question.

Now, can BBall with small roster stay virus free?

He said it was because of COVID-19 issues at Michigan. This contradicts what Angelique said earlier about there being only one confirmed positive. You need around 12 positives to cancel. 

If it's true the season is most likely over - mercifully.

Hopefully the game against OSU is canceled as well. HOWEVA, OSU will still play for the Big Title and win. If OSU can’t play Michigan next week then they will schedule another Big Ten team to make it to six games. If they can’t play at all next week then the Big Ten will change the rules and let OSU in. Everything always works out for OSU so that is what I expect to happen.

I don’t know...despite the dismal performance this season, I like watching Michigan football games. It’s what I’ve been doing every Saturday in the fall for my entire life.  It’s sucks.
