Kiszla: Why the CU Buffs and CSU Rams should consider playing twice in 2020 football season

Colorado State football coach Steve Addazio is a dude, and dudes aren’t scared of no stinkin’ coronavirus. Addazio is worried about beating the CU Buffs in the season-opener Sept. 5, not becoming the next victim of a pandemic that has killed more than 85,000 Americans.

I asked Addazio, a husband and father who celebrates his 61st birthday on June 1, if he felt any heightened sense of danger from COVID-19?

“Zero!” Addazio replied with a second of hesitation.

“I’m not irresponsible, but I’m not concerned.”

Coach Daz is a dude who wants to believe with all his heart there will be college football in 2020.
