Well, ladies and gentlemen, the NCAA has officially postponed the fall championships for the 2020 season. This comes after the Big Ten, Pac 12, and Mid-American conferences all decided to either postpone or cancel fall sports including college football.
You can watch NCAA President Mark Emmert communicate the postponement of fall championships below, courtesy of Inside The NCAA on Twitter:
"We cannot, at this point, have fall NCAA championships."

While the Big Ten and Pac-12 have postponed fall sports, other Power Five conferences are still heading towards a season including the SEC, ACC, and Big 12. Keep in mind, the NCAA does not organize the College Football Playoffs. As a result, the postponement of fall championships has no bearing on the College Football Playoffs.
