This is sad news though not surprising! Wouldn't be much of a game anyway but still will miss it. BIG made a mistake coming back and should have stuck to their guns in the first place and just cancelled the season. Even if the Bucks make the playoffs and win it all there will be an asterisk placed next to it with so few games played and they won't get full respect of a normal champ. Been a crazy season! Will be so nice to get back to normal next year!

This weekend's game between the Indiana Hoosiers and the Purdue Boilermakers has been canceled, but neither team will play Ohio State. Indiana and Purdue have mutually agreed to cancel Saturday's game due to a rising number of Covid-19 cases within both programs. This means that despite the cancellation, neither team will be available to play the Buckeyes this weekend.

Michigan has announced that it's game with Iowa this coming Saturday has been cancelled. There have been reports that up to 60 players are impacted with either injury, Covid-19 or contact tracing. This means that their season is over with, and we will possibly see what happens with Harbaugh's contract. I personally hope that they sign him to a lifetime contract.

It now appears as if the Big Ten is now down to four games this weekend. Maryland has announced that they will have to cancel their game this Saturday against Michigan State due to an excessive number of positive cases in the program. This brings the total games canceled for Big Ten Championship weekend to three: Indiana vs Purdue, Iowa vs Michigan, and Maryland vs Michigan State. Here's hoping the remaining four games are able to be played.
