Old Dominion University became the third FBS program in the nation — and the only member of a football conference — to opt out of the 2020-21 academic year entirely when it announced Friday that it won't play football gain until next fall.
The Monarchs are Conference USA’s lone team opting out of the 2020 football season in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the Mid-American Conference’s announcement Friday that it will play a fall schedule, ODU joins football independents Connecticut and New Mexico State as the only schools to choose the sidelines this season.
