Dan Patrick Says Ohio State is “Very Close to the Availability Limit” When it Comes to the National Championship Game

Dan Patrick had some huge news about the National Championship game on Thursday morning.  According to Dan, the Big Ten is advocating for the postponement of the game due to a COVID-19 outbreak at Ohio State.

Patrick says that the Buckeyes are "very close to the availability limit" for the game.  Ohio State, despite the outbreak, has maintained that they're ready for the game as it is currently scheduled.

If the outbreak was bad enough to push the availability limit then why isn't Ohio State calling for the postponement of the game?

Does the Big Ten know something they don't?  Or are they trying to buy some time for a banged up quarterback?  Hmm...
