Dan Patrick Show

“From source: If conference can pass updated safety measures and procedures, Big Ten targeting Oct. 10 to start football season.” - Dan Patrick
This came after the president met with B1G commish Kevin Warren. Warren's son plays for Mississippi St and they will be playing in September.
Also:
TV partners have already green-lighted any decision that B1G presidents and Kevin Warren decide on, but bigger networks Fox Sports and ESPN/ABC are also pushing for October start, per source.
Big Ten will only get partial TV revenue if they delay until Thanksgiving or later. [Reply]

A reporter in Milwaukee has confirmed it start date will be Oct 17th which still makes all teams eligible for the playoffs
Such a joke of a season. Unless all power 5 conferences are planning on playing, any championship doesn't count.
I don't expect them to get through it, though, with the cold and flu season coming.
I'm worried for Nebraska though. They might go Ofer. [Reply]

It's like they gave Mandingo a smedium pocket pussy to start the season off.
:-) I have no illusions that their beating Ohio St. But their not going to get rolled either. I think Ne is going to be better than people think this year. [Reply]

I just think this Ohio State team is absolutely loaded and you have the misfortune of going to their place Week 1. I'll be shocked if it is within 30 points. This would happen to almost any BIG team, you just drew the straw. [Reply]
