The Pac 12 Commissioner Larry Scott is looking for a late fall start date and wants the Big Ten's Kevin Warren to join him.  How likely is it that Big 10 leadership goes with a Pac-12 schedule over the College Playoffs?

I feel like it would basically giving the schools like Ohio State, Penn State, Nebraska the finger

 

Larry Scott says he remains in close contact with #B1G commissioner Kevin Warren and says would be a "high priority" for leagues to align their seasons, if possible

Timeline-

By that, we mean the local restrictions — particularly for the four California and two Oregon teams.

As of now, it seems unlikely the six schools could all receive clearance for full-contact, full-squad practices in a matter of weeks.

But by early October? Perhaps.

And if they can practice by early October, they can play in the middle of November.

Schedule-

If the conference are aligned on scheduling — Larry Scott said he’s in frequent communication with Kevin Warren about moving forward together — and if the conferences are aligned on testing protocols, why couldn’t each team schedule one game against a team from the other conference?

Why couldn’t Michigan visit Seattle and Ohio State visit Eugene, whether it’s in November, December or whenever the leagues decide to restart their seasons
