I have a question....do you all think we (A&T) will have an advantage competitively in the fall Big South football season since we aren't playing this spring or will the teams competing this spring have an competitive advantage over us? In other words, does us not playing this spring help us or hurt us on the field when we begin Big South play this fall (if the pandemic doesn't also cancel fall 2021 season, that is...)?

I think it helps and hurts on both sides. Mostly related to injuries and amount of time since playing last.

The teams that are playing should have a slight advantage going into fall because there players have been battle-tested . Because that gives the coaching staff a better level of evaluation against competition something that you do not get in Spring practice because all the players are familiar with each other. Just a very very slight Edge .

Watching Austin Peay and Tennessee State with AP up 20-7 at the half and TSU is just plain pathetic on offense. Never have been a fan of Rod Reed's coaching.

If anything, this Spring is showing who really was prepared and who wasn’t. Right now, I don’t know how well we would’ve looked.

Game with SCSU in DC off for whatever reason. SCSU should be signing a home and home deal with AAMU and play them in Oburg on Sat. And then in Alabama in the Fall
Starting to understand and see the issues out there. Hilton might have been right. This isn't looking good for HBCU football

Hilton might have been right. This isn't looking good for HBCU football Something is indeed going on. Fact: SC State has removed both the home & away football games against Howard this spring from their schedule on their athletics website. It now only lists the home-and-home vs. Del. State on their website right now. Rumor ( unconfirmed): SC State and Alabama A&M are to sign a home-and-home agreement with SC State hosting Alabama A&M this upcoming Saturday, March 6 in Orangeburg and Alabama A&M hosting SC State in Huntsville, AL during the fall of 2021. Hearsay ( definitely unconfirmed): The reasoning for Howard & SC State not playing each other is because of each jurisdiction's stance on pandemic numbers (DC & the state of SC). I am emphasizing that this is hearsay and not confirmed.

South Carolina and Alabama are RED states. I'll leave it there.
