Well, to be honest, I'm just glad this isn't on OSU's end and hope all the Maryland players are ok. This was going to happen at some point or another. COVID is totally uncontrolled right now and we're going to be looking at ~200k cases per day by next week.

We could be nearing the point where it all shuts down.

It is getting really bad.

I think CFB is going to have to look at a suspension of all games soon, and figure out if they want to wait for 2-4 weeks, or if they want an expanded playoff just to finish up the season.

Unless you bubble your entire team, we're about to see infections on the vast majority of teams and cancelations of half the games each week. No point doing that.

That’s why I thought there was no way the team could let down at all ..Play every game like it’s your last..cause it could be.I wonder the mindset of the team now. Reportedly 9 players have it that’s a cancellation? A no contest?

Big10 Stupidly allows the other team to cancel whenever for Corona and not only when they meet the guidelines. They should be allowed to cancel if they want still but it should count as a forfiet not a no contest. Can you imagine if Indiana next week has Penix have it and no one else and decided they don't want to risk their ranking against OSU without their QB? CHances are the way these things are going 20 will have it by this weekend so it doesn't matter anyways but still sketchy rules.

Sounds like Conference leadership didn’t want to take the responsibility for this. It would be like the NFL let every team do what they want. Warren again stupid as hell.

LOL. I was just talking with my buddy. Indiana would be smart to suddenly have "COVID". Puts us 1 game away from being disqualified from the B1G title and they dont chance taking a L to us. All benefit to Indiana.

Fuck. As many others have stated, why the B1G pushed starting the season right when the spike was supposed to happen again is beyond me. Anyways, looks like I have my Saturday free to get some chores done. Would have much rather watched Fields shred Maryland though.

The B1G dropped the ball on the whole thing. Pushing back. The stupid "6 game" rule.

Sadly nobody at all will be fired for this total serious of screw ups
