The coronavirus pandemic has shuttered sports at all levels, and conference commissioners have stressed to Vice President Mike Pence college athletics cannot resume until campuses reopen. The Big 12's schools have all announced their intentions in recent weeks to have students on campus this fall.

Sure hope so. I imagine the front leader conferences to actually play football this season would be the Big 12 and SEC. I think the PAC is totally screwed with their leaders out that way.

I have my doubts about the Cal game being played. If it does, it will most likely be here, and I was looking forward to a trip to SF.

family friends have a son that plays for cal and i have asked him about the season and he basically has said he has no idea, he is working out and preparing for the season, but they have gotten no real guidance on when they might be coming back to campus or the season

Ohio State will occupy one of the 4 playoff spots even if their season is cancelled. Everyone is playing for the other 3 spots. Which really means there is only one spot left because the committee already voted 2 SEC teams in.
