Vice President for Athletics, Ray Anderson
"We regrettably have to invoke the Pac-12's football game cancellation policy for this week's game at Colorado due to positive COVID-19 cases among student-athletes and staff. The cancellation of another game is very difficult to accept for all of us, but it continues to be the right decision under the circumstances. The health, safety and welfare of our student-athletes is our number one priority and will continue to be at the forefront of every decision.
"As we announced Friday for our contest against Cal, the number of positive cases in the last few days has put our team below the Pac-12's minimum threshold of 53 available scholarship student-athletes under the league's game cancellation policy.
