The quick thing to do after the Big Ten announced a cancelation of fall sports was to throw Nebraska into the Big 12, SEC or ACC.
The former Big 12 member made strong comments the last two days in regards to trying to play a football in the fall of 2020. It was met with pushback from the Big Ten and its members, but the thought was compelling.
According to Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby during a conference call with the media Wednesday, he said that Nebraska has not reached out in any former regarding to play Big 12 schools.
Bowlsby: Nebraska did not reach out in any form regarding playing Big 12 schools.

Nebraska left for the Big Ten from the Big 12 in 2011. The Cornhuskers had long been rivals of Oklahoma and Texas. Nebraska played in the last Big 12 Championship game before it stopped in 2010, losing to Oklahoma.
The Big 12 released its conference schedule on Wednesday after officially announcing they were still pushing towards a fall season. The Sooners announced they will start the 2020 fall season on Sept. 12 against Missouri State.
