Ivy League cancels all fall sports, so what happens next for college football?

After significant speculation in recent weeks, the Ivy League made a major announcement: All fall sports would be cancelled for 2020, including football (first reported by Jon Rothstein).

We don’t know if that means football is happening in spring instead, or will just be cancelled until fall 2021. But we do know that when combined with recent cancellations from Patriot League squads, an uptick in COVID-19 cases across the U.S. and issues around positive tests at FBS camps, this coming season is very much in peril — at least as it’s currently written.

The Ivy cancellations won’t affect Syracuse Orange football.
