How Long Will The Ohio State Football Shutdown Last?

Ohio State canceled its game at Illinois on Saturday because after a serious outbreak of COVID-19 among players and coaches, they weren't comfortable putting the team on an airplane to Champaign. Right now, everything is shut down at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center: no practices, and no in-person meetings. But head coach Ryan Day is still hoping the Buckeyes can play this weekend at Michigan State. What has to happen in order for the Buckeyes to be on the field Saturday? BuckeyeScoop's Bill Greene joins host Tom Orr to answer that, and a number of other questions. This weekend's game has to be played for Ohio State to qualify for the Big Ten Championship Game, but how important is a game on Saturday for their College Football Playoff hopes? And with another weekend of games in the books, the College Football Playoff field is starting to take shape. Bill explains why he thinks the Buckeyes are likely to make the final field if they win out, but also outlines the one scenario that could leave Ohio State out in the cold.
