Badgers Cancel Game after COVID Outbreak

Wisconsin football paused all team related activities for at least 7 days including the cancelling of their upcoming game against Nebraska.

As of Wednesday morning Wisconsin football had 12 people within the program test positive for COVID-19 in the past 5 days. This includes 6 players and 6 staff members. The Badgers who started the year with a convincing win over Illinois are focused on getting their players and staff healthy and safe.

This article is news worthy because the Big Ten Conference was the last to start football activities and have already had to cancel one game. Also it is news worthy because football and COVID, with exception of the election, are the two most interested areas to people right now.
