Report: Nebraska vs Wisconsin Game May Be Canceled

Jeff Potrkus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has reported that Saturday’s Nebraska - Wisconsin game may be in jeopardy of being canceled.

Wisconsin starting quarterback Graham Mertz has already been ruled out of the game because of multiple positive Covid-19 tests. This is after the first Badger starting quarterback Jack Coan was ruled out indefinitely due to a foot injury.

It has also been revealed that the backup to Mertz, Chase Wolf, has also tested positive for this bloody damned virus.

Then this news:

But according to a second source, UW’s test positivity rate is close to the threshold that would force the team to stop regular practice and competition for a minimum of seven days and then reassess the situation.
