September 17, 2020
The Big Ten will start their football season the weekend of October 24th, decided university presidents and chancellors on Tuesday, September 15th. The Pac-12 is still waiting to make a decision for their teams. Government COVID-19 health restrictions in California and Oregon will impact what the timeline might be and how games can be played in the Pac-12 states.
Not long after the Big Ten announced their October return to playing, the Mountain West released a statement saying it is working on solutions to allow a return to playing as soon as possible, but to date there are still no plans in place for a fall football season. The University of Wyoming is part of the Mountain West conference. In mid-August, officials announced they were cancelling all of the MW fall football game schedule due to COVID-19 health concerns.
