The B10 releases football schedules this morning -- in mere minutes. Will OSU-M open the season?

**iam416** · August 5, 2020, 07:51 AM

OSU-M -- October 24th.

First home game is Rutgers. Great. Will they be able to field a team by Sept 10?

**iam416** · August 5, 2020, 08:03 AM

They haven't fielded a team of note since 2014 when the bested mighty Hoke. I can't imagine there'd be any discernible difference between their team and 35 cafeteria works donning the oh so proud Rutgers "R".

Now would be a good time to just end the Rutgers Gimmick.

Let's keep Sparty, though. Beating them on a regular basis is a nice thing to get back to.

Report: Big Ten cancels 2020 season amid COVID-19 fears

Report: Big Ten to cancel 2020 season

https://www.thescore.com/ncaaf/news/1999968?fbclid=IwAR0muh9mAwqsCAEXpf9Pm3UF37xb_LWgTjB3EJqTXUSnXF5vkFAo_N8GQ8M

The Big Ten won't be playing football in 2020.The conference's presidents have voted to cancel the fall football season due to concerns about playing amid the COVID-19 pandemic, sources told Orion Sang, David Jesse, Chris Solari, and Chris Thomas of the Detroit Free Press.While a formal announcement is reportedly coming Tuesday, a spokesman told Yahoo Sports' Pete Thamel that a vote has yet to take place. Just got a text from a Big Ten spokesman. "No vote has been held by our presidents and chancellors." Hence, the Big Ten watch continues.— Pete Thamel (@PeteThamel) August 10, 2020 The reported decision makes the Big Ten the first Power 5 conference to opt against staging a campaign. It's reportedly attempting to coordinate its announcement with the other major conferences.Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren apparently prefers to hold a spring football season, but a final decision has not been made.The reported vote to cancel the season follows a late push by players to salvage the campaign. Star quarterbacks Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields led a social media campaign late Sunday that saw student-athletes call for the formation of a players' union and the implementation of other return-to-play protocols.The Mid-American Conference became the first FBS conference to postpone its fall athletics season Saturday.

I'm only about 50% surprised.

I really thought they'd start the season and go from there.

Oh well ... on the bright side, no loss to OSU this year.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers are apparently looking for a way to play college football in the fall of 2020 and one Heisman Trophy winner is ready to show them the door and get them out of the Big Ten.
