Oklahoma State won’t play Tulsa as scheduled.

The Golden Hurricane announced Monday that the football game against the Cowboys has been moved from September 12 to the 19th because of coronavirus impacting Tulsa’s practice schedule. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Tulsa had to suspend football practice for several days in August because of coronavirus.

As I’ve said many times before, there’s no reason to panic right now. There’s no reason at all. The game was bumped back one week.

It wasn’t canceled or postponed indefinitely. It’s simply been moved back seven days. There’s no reason to worry.

Look, we’re dealing with a global pandemic. That means we’re going to have to be flexible. That’s just the reality of the situation. We can pretend like it’s not, but we’ll only be pretending.

Until teams start completely pulling out like the Big 10 and PAC-12 did, I see no reason to panic.

We’re going to have college football in the fall. There might be some changes, but the games aren’t stopping.
