Pac-12 sets football policies
SAN FRANCISCO — The Pac-12 has established cancellation and tiebreaker policies for its virus-truncated football season.
The conference announced Monday that a minimum threshold of at least 53 scholarship players — with various position minimums — must be available for any team to participate in a game. If a school does not elect to play the game shorthanded, the game will be rescheduled or declared a no-contest.
The Pac-12’s seven-game, conference-only season is scheduled to begin Nov. 7 and the conference is taking potential cancellations into account in its tiebreaker policies.
To be eligible for the Pac-12 Championship game, teams must play no less than one game fewer than the average played among all Pac-12 teams.
Division winners will be determined by best winning percentage for all games and head-to-head results will take precedent in the event of a tie in the loss column.
