As the chances of the 2020 season become greater by the day, likely with no fans and no home field advantage...

I believe this is a huge opportunity for Cal (and maybe the furd too) to balance their even/odd year schedules.

If there is a season, it won't be a full schedule.

Could Cal convince Furd to switch the BG location in 2021 and every year going forward? It really doesn't matter where we play this year as there will be no fans.

Similarly, but less likely, could Cal flip a home series with the Washington schools or Oregon schools to balance the odd/even year balance of USC and low draw games in odd years vs 4 prime games p12 home games in even years.

Furd and USC at home in the same year is also not optimal, as by far the two biggest draws. But for sure an improvement over the current imbalance.

On the other hand, having an easier schedule every other year gives us a better shot to have a great year at some point.
