Wisconsin Game Cancelled

The completely unsurprising result of trying to play 9 weeks in a row with no opportunity to reschedule games.

This is why the Big Ten should have started earlier, instead of later (and also coinciding with the start of flu season).  I understand the desire to have daily testing available, but the handling of this has been completely effed up by the Big Ten leaders.

 
If Wisconsin has to shut down this week, then they have to miss the next 3 weeks while they go through the 21 day protocol, and I believe they are ineligible for Indianapolis

 
Folks--I didn't see this linked, but for Wisky, 11 is the magic number.

If Wisky has 11 or more positives that are still positive come Friday, game is cancelled. Don't know what the magic number for Nebraska is, but I'd wager it's similar considering the finite number of tests each team has per day.

(updated from saying more than 11, which is incorrect. 11 or more and the game is cancelled)

Not to be nit-picky, but the math comes to 10.95 players (@ 7.5% of the population) which means - as far as I understand it - if they have 11 players/coaches test positive on the 7-day rolling average that game won't be played.

 
Would the B1G let us play someone in a non-con game? A bye week wouldn't hurt, but it'd be nice for our guys to be able to play since they did nothing wrong and are under the COVID threshold.
