It’s remarkable how quickly the winds can change in college football. When the Big Ten announced that it was postponing its fall season with the Pac-12 quickly following suit, it looked like there would be no season. The Big 12 decided to follow the ACC and SEC in waiting things out, as did some of the Group of 5 conferences, so we didn’t lose everything in early August.
Now in mid-September, the Big Ten did what commissioner Kevin Warren said wouldn’t happen and reevaluated its decision. The B1G is full-go for late October, and the Pac-12 subsequently has begun lobbying the states of California and Oregon for the permission necessary to make its season happen in the fall.
