Fresno State-Colorado game cancelled, university loses $600,000 and potentially more

Fresno State football’s Sept. 12 matchup against the Colorado Buffaloes will not be taking place as the PAC-12 Conference announced on Friday they will only have a conference-only football schedule due to concerns surrounding the pandemic.

The PAC-12 becomes the second FBS conference to announce a conference-only fall athletics schedule with a vote coming Friday morning.

“The health and safety of our student-athletes and all those connected to Pac-12 sports continues to be our number one priority,” Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott said. “Our decisions have and will be guided by science and data, and based upon the trends and indicators over the past days, it has become clear that we need to provide ourselves with maximum flexibility to schedule, and to delay any movement to the next phase of return-to-play activities.
