There are reports that the Wisconsin team is close to the threshold which would require cancellation of Saturday's game.

And now that has happened.   Game vs Nebraska is cancelled.

Given the rates of positivity in the State of Wisconsin it is so hard to believe this will get better soon for the state, the university or the team.

Sadly, I can imagine this happening to Pac-12 schools too.   I guess it is all worth it for some TV revenue.

Interestingly (if true), the game was canceled even though Wisconsin was not required to do so by "the numbers" - i.e., they had the players at the position groups sufficient to play the game.  If I were Czar of All Things, then I'd mark that game down as a Wisconsin forfeit.  Incentives to be smart on "re-opening activities" is a good thing.
