In a normal game week, Tuesday is a very important day in terms of preparation for a college football team.
But 2020 has been no ordinary year, and this Tuesday specifically is unique in its own way. It’s Election Day, and thanks to legislation passed by the NCAA it’s a mandatory off day for all student-athletes.
That it just so happens to fall in the middle of Arizona’s first “game week” was an unfortunate coincidence that came with the Pac-12 deciding to make Nov. 7 the start of its abbreviated 2020 season.
