Football is back. Football in front of a crowd will have to wait.
No fans will be allowed at Big Ten games this fall, the league said Wednesday when announcing its return to football. No tailgating, either.

"We are not going to permit fans in general, the sale of tickets,” Penn State athletic director Sandy Barbour said on BTN. "We are looking to see what we can do on a campus-by-campus basis to accommodate families of student-athletes both home and away, as well as families of staff. As a conference, we made a decision — no public sale of tickets.
