I don’t understand all the cloak and dagger. Why not announce it ASAP?

“Sources: The Big Ten is coming back and will begin the weekend of Oct. 24. It'll include daily, rapid testing as a fixture of the plan. A statement from the league is imminent.”

Pretty much this. They're probably thinking up a prepared statement so they don't look like dumb asses.

October 24th? What a fricking joke. We're gonna have a six game season at that rate. No room for any cancelled games or anything.

It will be an 8 game season with a title game. CFP eligible.

But no open dates for any reschedules. Which makes this whole cancelling thing so dumb.

Could have had a 10 game season over 16 weeks but now leave themselves zero room for error simply for an 8 game season.

fricking morons running this conference.

Going to be odd having a 7/8 game schedule team going to the college football playoff.

So osu gets to waltz to the playoffs playing like 4 less games than everyone else?

Something about an sec team facing an all sec gauntlet plus an seccg and playing 11 games vs an osu team that barely breaks a sweat for like 6 games isn't exactly fair

Yeah, I think this is a half-hearted attempt to play with no margin of error, on purpose.

This will all blow up when the Rutgers president wants to cancel games for god knows what reason. Zero wiggle room now to reschedule.

Pretty much all of these teams have been practicing anyway. Start it Oct 10th.

Hopefully the playoff committee rewards the better season.
A sec 8-2 deserves to be in over a 8-0 big 10
