YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – We all know that Saturday’s will look and feel very different this fall with the absence of football throughout the state of Michigan. Then again, not much has felt normal for many of us since March 12, when the SARS-CoV-2 virus (better known as COVID-19) flipped the world and sporting industry on its head.
People crave college football and the traditions it oozes. Players, coaches, fight songs, and stadiums are romanticized. Undoubtedly, most fans have long-standing memories of plays, games, or special moments that can immediately transport them back to that Saturday (or Tuesday in the case of #MACtion) in the fall.
