It’s just an E. coli outbreak. They confused the beer cooler with the pooping cooler.
December 17th, 2020 at 4:55 PM ^
It won't matter. The OSU coaches and administrators would gladly sacrifice their players' health for a shot at a national title.
December 17th, 2020 at 5:01 PM ^
The whole State!!!
December 17th, 2020 at 5:36 PM ^
Am I the only one who thinks if the game has to be cancelled because OSU-covid situation that NW should be awarded the conference championship?
December 17th, 2020 at 7:24 PM ^
I absolutely agree with you—OSU is forfeiting. OK not to call it a loss during the regular season but NW is the “last man” standing at the championship game.
December 17th, 2020 at 5:47 PM ^
Just give the title for 2020 to Nebraska, for all the meaning it will have at this point.
December 17th, 2020 at 6:38 PM ^
Come on, bruh! This is our only chance in like, the next 20 years!
December 17th, 2020 at 8:04 PM ^
Only if Frostie's Corn*u*kers "outhit" everyone.
December 17th, 2020 at 6:15 PM ^
Anything that happens this season is the farceiest of farces.
December 17th, 2020 at 6:33 PM ^
Won’t be enough to cancel their game. They can easily beat Northwestern even extremely short handed. Nothing bad ever happens to OSU.
December 17th, 2020 at 7:25 PM ^
This isn't the covid outbreak you're looking for.
December 17th, 2020 at 7:57 PM ^
Ok...say they announce that this game is cancelled because OSU can't play. Does the ACC then try to "cancel" their title game to get Clemson and ND in (you would imagine both are in as of now, right?).
December 17th, 2020 at 9:56 PM ^
Great idea! SEC could follow suit to keep Bama pristine
December 17th, 2020 at 8:21 PM ^
Did they tell the whole nation how their protocols were the best in college football? No? Deal around me.
December 17th, 2020 at 9:04 PM ^
Can’t convince those fools to close the lid on the cooler when you flush to avoid the COVID plume.
December 17th, 2020 at 9:31 PM ^
This will test OSU football integrity ... guess the decision
December 17th, 2020 at 9:33 PM ^
Even if half the team is coughing up a lung, OSU will still play and win to get to the playoffs.
December 17th, 2020 at 10:09 PM ^
So if this outbreak cancels the game that should mean “no contest” and then we have co-B1G champions. right?
December 17th, 2020 at 11:30 PM ^
No one else is reporting this. How credible is this rivals source?
December 18th, 2020 at 12:40 AM ^
So is this how they duck Clemson?
December 18th, 2020 at 9:12 AM ^
Mystery solved?

Mega contact tracing and looks like it "goes deep". NU better cancel or they will get GB'ed next.
December 18th, 2020 at 1:55 PM ^
BTW: Kirk Ferentz has tested positive for COVID. Probably a good thing that the game was canceled, regardless of Michigan's status.
December 18th, 2020 at 3:24 PM ^
The 'outbreak' is reportedly one high-profile player, not Fields, possibly one assistant coach, and a few student managers.
December 18th, 2020 at 7:57 PM ^
OSU will play, Conf title is far more important to them than anything else.
