A nation that failed to control the pandemic is going to be without college sports this fall.
The first major conference has announced that they will not play football this fall. The other four will almost surely follow suit. The Detroit News broke the story (“Big Ten cancels football season, Pac-12 on verge of pulling plug, SEC and Big 12 mull conference realignment“): The college football season doesn’t look like it’ll be happening. At least per multiple reports on the Power 5 conferences in the country. The Big Ten and the Pac-12 would be canceling their football seasons on Tuesday, according to the Dan Patrick Show. Both of those conferences had groups of players band together and create statements demanding increased protections against COVID-19 along with other demands. But by Monday morning, the Big Ten had canceled the football season, per the Detriot Free Press. The ACC and the Big 12 are currently on the fence in regards to a football season and the SEC is trying to get both of those leagues to continue forward with the season, according to Patrick.
