I'm old enough to remember when it fairly easy to avoid politics when talking football

Well it was constructive.  Just offering up potential help with making rapid testing more readily available.

Postponed is a key word here.

Actually... I just figured it out.

It seems a lot of Buckeyes were pushing the theory that it was all Warren's fault. But coincidentally, that was when we thought that the vote was 12-2 and the only ones voting to keep the season were Nebraska and Iowa.

So when they thought it was their own President that voted to cancel/postpone the season, then the vote must not have taken place and it was all Warren's fault.

Now that it comes out it was 11-3 and OSU voted to keep the season, they no longer need to blame Warren--they can blame the rest of the B1G for ruining their chance at the CFP. Warren's off the hook not because of anything he did [or didn't do], but because now they don't have to blame their own President for going against them.
I think that's a tad overcomplicated.

Singular people or forces are easy to blame. We like doing it. One potentially attention-hungry out of his element person, who son is still playing ball, is easier and cleaner to blame than a coalition of reps from every school. Plus, it adds intrigue. Warren wants to be at the forefront is fundamentally more interesting than conservative admins made a certain kind of conservative choice. Never doubt our ability to want the world to be more interesting than it is.

very liberal admins that are very conservative about their risk of a law suit

Yep (probably?). I'm never sure where to guess the politics of admins.

Dan Patrick says Oct. 10 could be in play to start.

It would be ironic if the B1G comes up with a plan to start say Oct. 10 and starts forward, and then around October 1, the SEC et al. shut it down.
