Big Ten Reveals 11-3 Vote in Nebraska Players Court Case

Published|Updated

The Big Ten, in the court case brought by eight Nebraska players seeking to reverse the conference's postponement of Fall football season, says that they did take a vote and that it was 11-3. Adam Rittenberg of ESPN details:







So, with Ohio State, Iowa, and Nebraska voting against postponement, this means that Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Michigan State, Northwestern, Purdue, Indiana, Rutgers, Maryland, Minnesota, and Penn State voted for the postponement. The only relative surprise in there is Penn State.

While this clears a couple things up -- Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren said there was a vote, which contradicted Penn State's athletics director and Minnesota's president who had said there was not a formal one -- the conference is still going to face considerable scrutiny if the SEC, ACC, and Big 12 are able to pull off their Fall seasons.
