We don’t know how the Big Ten Conference will handle COVID-19 Handling COVID-19 in 2020 included postponing the season before bringing it back with a conference-only schedule. Once the season did begin, a complex metric of positivity rates was used to decide if games would even be played. Players were also held out a certain number of days for a positive test or close contact. Nebraska missed out on playing Wisconsin when the Badgers went onto a program pause, and most teams lost out on at least one game. No non-conference games were allowed to replace lost contests. That means we missed out on the possible Nebraska-UT Chattanooga matchup.
