The Big 10 deserves credit for making the right decision - A+. Football is not worth the risk of serious damage to the health of a single football player. Players can now focus on their studies.

How many incredibly fit 20 year olds have been laid low by Covid? ZERO.

They literally said that it wasn't related to health concerns so not sure what you're going on about

I believe this is all political to keep the economy down. Big 10 is about starting the season on November 4th!

It is political....now he wants all B10 athletes to be social justice warriors. How can he even bring this up as an athletic discussion? Talk about political. He needs to go NOW!

I don't think the BIG had all the information to make that decision alone. The country doesn't. The hospitals are not over run by covid patients and the death toll is better than the flue!

You are very forgiving by offering C or worse. I am not even sure an F would do justice. This is a one man hit show. It seems to me the commissioner is out to prove he is the boss and no one else.

F: Responsible leaders making a decision with so much social and economic impact have a duty to give the people they serve the reasons for that decision. The conference isn't a democracy, but ...

This seems to be a "fly by the seat of your pants" decision made by an incompetent B10 commissioner. The worst part is that his son plays football in the SEC and is going to play. Hypocrite!

There was no transparency. Other conferences get to play which is an unfair advantage in recruiting. Covid survivor success rate is about 99.9% so quit living in fear. This is ruining peoples lives an

There is always risk. The risk of a football related injury, the same risks we mitigate every year, are far greater than the risks for which they claim to have postponed the season. COWARDS!!

A 10 game schedule one week, cancellation the next. No presentation of factual information to support their vote and no presentation of the actual vote. Poorly executed by a "prestigious" conference

No transparency, no details, the Presidents of the Universities are not coming together on an actual vote. I would say if you can't get 75% of the schools to agree, there is a problem.

Because we as fans should let the team wear whatever makes them excited and quit bringing up times 30 plus years ago like the uniforms had anything to do with how the games turned out.

Bad choice and ugly. For those old enough to remember, we got Irvin Fryar out of New Jersey because he looked better in our uniforms than the ugly Penn State uniforms. Why change for the sake of change when you have the better all ready in place. Sounds like the management of Cracker Barrel.

They have the talent, they need to take the step of winning the games they should win in the manner they should win them. Don’t play down to the level of the opponent.

I do not believe some of the glaring problems with the run defense have not been fixed, and Akron will exploit them.

The D-line against Cincy wasn't overly impressive, our run game was relatively unproductive, and we had some lucky breaks (even if good play contributed). The next two weeks will be important for closing gaps; I don't think we'll wallop Akron quite by 30+ points. I'm guessing we end up 17
