As uncertainty surrounds college football, Big Ten postponses fall sports season

After a rollercoaster 24-hour period, the Big Ten Conference has decided to move the 2019-20 fall sports season to next spring.

Last Sunday, rumors surfaced that Big Ten Commissioner Kevin Warren preferred fall sports to be played next spring, but Warren also reported no final decision had been made.

After days of speculation, multiple sources Monday reported the Big Ten would postpone their Fall 2020 season. Along with other sources, Dan Patrick reported 12 of the 14 presidents from the Big Ten voted against having a fall season.

According to Patrick’s report, presidents from Iowa and Nebraska were the only schools to support the fall season.
