BREAKING: B1G moves to conference-only scheduling, further dominoes to fall

Were you worried about Missouri having to play BYU in Provo or Louisiana-Lafayette in the second to last game of the year?

It seems like we won’t have to anymore.

Earlier this afternoon the B1G announced that be going to a conference-only season for all fall sports, including football. This follows on the heels of the Ivy League’s announcement yesterday that they were delaying all fall sports until the spring due to continuously high levels of COVID cases in the United States.

Even ignoring the fact that we now won’t see Ohio State-Oregon, Michigan-Washington, Penn State-Virginia Tech, or any of the marquee P5 matchups from B1G teams, this is a Power 5 conference making this call.
