Big 10 just pulled the plug
With a number of the next level Group of 5 conferences having already done the same, I'd say we ain't gonna have college football this fall.

ACC and SEC still a go.
Nebraska wants to play, maybe a return of the old Big 8.

That would take all of the drama out of playoff berths.

Yaknow...if it's just the SEC and ACC, you might as well just put LSU, Alabama, and Clemson in the playoffs and let them duke it out. Vanderbilt would have a shot at the playoffs.

Sorry, I am just now visiting this thread for some reason.


I sense Bigo's quote is sarcasm, and couldn't agree more.

The BIG10 isn't really relevant in the playoff picture anymore, much like Notre Dame.

Now it looks like "little brother" Pac 12 is scurrying to catch up to "big brother" Big 10 and play football after all.

FSU's coach has tested positive, as I have heard, the entire LSU team has had it and moved forward.
