All things considered, these results are incredibly manageable, and they’re pretty good news. Having only four positive tests in both programs isn’t a big deal at all.
It’s not even known if the positive tests are from the football teams or not, which is obviously the most important part of the situation.

If Michigan and Indiana can keep the numbers super low like they currently are, then the season might be trending in a positive direction.
Obviously, that’s probably easier said than done, but there’s no reason to panic over these numbers. There’s no reason to panic at all.

Hopefully, the two Big 10 programs can continue to contain the virus and we can start taking serious steps towards having football in the fall.
Trust me, this country needs football and we need to beat this damn virus.
Health experts: college football might be canceled this season because of coronavirus.
