Michigan Preparing to Practice, Growing Optimism Regarding Status of Ohio State Game | Eleven Warriors - Eleven Warriors

The Game could be played, after all.

Last week, the Ohio State vs. Michigan game seemed to be in serious jeopardy after COVID-19 issues caused Michigan to pause all in-person team activities and cancel last week's game against Illinois.

But as of Monday, there seems to be a growing sense of optimism out of Ann Arbor as Michigan is reportedly set to begin limited workouts on Monday and is preparing as if this week's game against Ohio State will happen.

This is a similar position Ohio State found itself in last Monday when the Buckeyes started their return to team activities with limited workouts on Monday before returning to full practice on Tuesday.

So far this season, Ohio State is the only Big Ten team to pause team activities due to positive COVID-19 tests and only cancel one game as the Buckeyes canceled their game against Illinois but were back against Michigan State last week. If Michigan is able to play Ohio State, it would become the second.

If The Game is indeed canceled, it would mark the first year Ohio State and Michigan did not meet on the football field since the 1917 season – before the Buckeyes had even won a game in the series.

A canceled game would drop the Buckeyes' total number of regular-season contests below the required six to qualify for the Big Ten championship game, unless Ohio State is able to schedule a replacement game in its place.

Last month, the Big Ten approved a process for conference teams to schedule a new game against another Big Ten team if both of their games are canceled by their opponent due to COVID-19 issues in the same week, provided that those two teams aren't dealing with COVID-19 outbreaks themselves and that the new game can be scheduled by Wednesday of that week.
