Ohio State v. Illinois - CANCELLED
- Thread starter phoenix4nu
- Start date
One more game and OSU can’t compete for the B10 title. I can see Michigan calling off their game against the Bucks lol
If you can not field a team, it should be a forfeit. It is perfectly fair. All teams are in the same situation. The more disciplined programs would have less chance of infections. If forfeits where in play, maybe coaches and players would work harder to keep the China virus out of their program....
well except all the ADs agreed before the season even started there would be no forfeits. So there is a consensus on this issue
Don’t have to play in a conference championship game or win your conference to get a playoff birth
Agree that that there was a consensus, and, can't be changed now. I just think it was a bad decision in the first place.
No. Bama got in one year after losing to Auburn and not making the SEC championship game
Would have to be some more cancelled games but
A Big Ten clause does potentially apply to Wisconsin or any other team that falls below six game. If the average number of games played by all teams falls below six, the new minimum number of games required for the Big Ten championship game would be two fewer than that minimum.
