California governor says there are no state guidelines preventing Pac-12 from returning

Now that the Pac-12 has secured daily testing machines, the biggest hurdle to returning to competition is getting approval for the California and Oregon universities to begin contact sports.

There might be some good news in that department as California governor Gavin Newsom told reporters Wednesday that “nothing in the state guidelines denies the ability for the Pac-12 to resume. That’s been a misrepresentation of the facts.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom just said that there is nothing keeping Pac-12 universities from playing football games in California.
