College Football Playoff Announces COVID-19 Postseason Policies for Fiesta Bowl

A growing number of COVID-19 cases around the country has raised some questions for the 2021 college football bowl season.

The College Football Playoff, which is also in charge of the Fiesta Bowl, announced Wednesday postseason policies regarding COVID-19 that could affect Oklahoma State’s Jan. 1 meeting with Notre Dame.

Should one of the teams be unable to compete because it has an insufficient number of athletes available, the CFP and the Fiesta Bowl will attempt to identify an alternate date for the game within one week of the scheduled date (Jan. 1). If no date can be found, the game would be ruled a no-contest.
