The College Football Playoff Management Committee delivered a clear message to Vice President Mike Pence about when this season might begin.
Per CBS Sports' Dennis Dodd, Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby told Pence on a conference call with the committee that no games will be played until students are allowed back on campus.
"Our players are students. If we're not in college, we're not having contests," Bowlsby said. "Our message was, we need to get universities and colleges back open, that we were education-based programs, and we weren't going to have sports until we had something closer to normal college going on.
