I hope this blows up in their face even more so than it already has. I would get a good laugh out of the SEC, ACC, and Big 12 playing fall football, while the B1G and MAC play their games like pansies in the spring.

Uh, no they weren't. The vote was 12-2 and Nebraska/Iowa were the no votes.

They are punting to the other leagues temporarily. They are absolutely not going to postpone the season to the spring if the other major conferences play in September

So does every team in the ACC, SEC, Big 12 and CUSA get a guaranteed bowl now?

So if other conferences don't follow suit, what exactly does the Big10 think they're going to do, especially if the CFP committee crowns a champion in January? Sounds like a way of cancelling the season without cancelling the season officially.

Which is probably why they changed the vote to “postponement” instead of cancellation

Nice out for her to be like “oh I never voted to cancel!”

Which is what I said. Tosu voted to not play.

So they aren’t going anywhere unless day and his players have taken back control

Utterly ridiculous.

What reason are they providing? What changed from when they announced conference only to now?

Have glorified scrimmages in the Spring for all non-NFL caliber players.

Might as well cancel 2021 while you’re at it. It’s not going to be any safer then

It’s a step in the right direction away from cancel-culture so we have a silver-lining at least.
