There is no such thing as an overabundance of caution when it comes to stuff like this. From my non-doctor perspective, circumstances would have to deteriorate considerably for the NCAA to actually enact such a policy, given its drastic measures. But other sports around the world have already gone to that extreme; this weekend's slate of Serie A games in Italy will be played with no crowd, as reported by ESPN earlier this week.
