If you’re a college football fans, there’s no doubt you’re on pins and needles waiting for news as for what this season holds.
On Monday morning, reports began surfacing of news of the Big 12 and Pac 12 cancelling their season.
The Dan Patrick Show then tweeted that “According to Dan’s source, 12 of the 14 Presidents from the Big 10 have voted against having a Fall College Football season. Iowa and Nebraska were the two that have been pushing to play.”
But Patrick went on to share that the SEC wasn’t giving up so easily and that the “The SEC is looking for teams to join them. And the SEC is looking at exclusive TV contracts.”
He’s not alone in saying that.
During an appearance on ESPN morning show “Get Up” on Monday morning, Finebaum shared that:
“As far as pushback, yes there is plenty of pushback. I talked to an SEC source yesterday who said, ‘We’re still planning on playing. We have our schedule release coming up in a couple of days.
Remember, Friday night the SEC released the two additional conference games, so it just shows the incredible disconnect that we’ve talked about for three months, that is now mushroomed and has literally put everything on edge. As someone else told me early this morning, the college football season is not dead, it’s just on life support right now.”

Life support for sure, but not all hope is lost.
At this point, it might just the SEC and one or two more conferences, or it might just be the SEC.
Simply put, the SEC isn’t giving up.
Not anytime soon at least.
There’s a lot of unknowns still needing to be answered, but at least we know there’s one conference still fighting to games to be played this fall: the SEC.
