Clemson had a symptomatic player travel with their team on a plane test positive for COVID. FSU docs did not feel comfortable moving forward with the game. So ... yes the game was canceled because of COVID.

The administration helped Jimbo get:
Indoor practice facility
Updated + upgraded stadium
Remodeled coaches offices, locker room, meeting space
Current plans for a standalone football facility
Also was 6th highest paid coach in the country
But sure ..
Jimbo: “You can have the greatest coaches in the world, but if the administration doesn’t see things in the way you see things, and allow you to do things that way, nothing can be achieved.”

Bottom line: Big Ten miscalculated when it decided in August not to play, believing everyone else would follow. When ACC/SEC/Big 12 forged ahead, Big Ten scrambled and earliest it could start was just as cases began spiking. The league has no one to blame but itself.

Every other league makes biz decisions on realignment but the ACC should be charitable and not abandon two of the best academic institutions in the world? From a school that does not play football in said league facing significant revenue gaps w/SEC, Big Ten. Make it make sense.
