Fran wants to play ALL of the games, even it it means moving dates of B1G Tourn & NCAA Tourn.

[El Simbolo]

Reports are that Brad Underwood is not expecting any movement from the league to slide in a game, presumably before Iowa.

The Illini instead are aggressively trying to find a nonconference opponent who will meet their testing protocols.

Sure seems like B1G is missing a great opportunity here. Is Assembly Hall (State Farm Center, whatever) booked for other sports Sunday & Monday? If they're not moving anything, I think the B1G owes the public an explanation of why it doesn't work.

Good story

Good story from Matt Norlander.

Every conference tournament is still on. But will they happen in the end?

F Nebraska.

This won't help getting all the games in

Interesting.

...opting out of playing the tournament.

Maybe getting a full share of the NCAA tournament $ should be optional as well...

Just 3 days ago, Michigan was on track to get all 20 reg season conference games in.

Then the Michigan governor stepped in.

Holy crap they haven't played since Jan. 10. Their next scheduled game would be Feb. 3. At what point do they just forfeit their season?

its become a $hit show

I see the U of Michigan is trying to convince the state to allow them to play

If the players/staff are all negative, why not let them play?

There's no way Nebraska can make up the games they have missed due to Covid, and Michigan St is getting to the point they too, will not complete their schedule. The easy way out since both teams are falling too far behind the rest of the league is to forfeit the non-played games and go from there, if they pass Covid protocol. Anybody that thinks the possibility exists that the games will be made up, I'll sell them an unused gift card to the Davenport Outback restaurant.
