"All you have to do is look around the Big Ten. Northwestern doesn’t hold a spring game at all. Wisconsin’s was canceled due to weather in 2018 and this year the Badgers aren’t having a traditional spring game, opting instead for an open practice to close out the spring session. Iowa is having turf replaced currently so there is no spring game. Time will tell if they reinstitute it next year or follow the Badgers’ lead of not going back.
Ohio State is having a spring game this weekend — like NU’s it’s being televised on BTN — but it will feature no live tackling. The Buckeyes instead will "thud it up," head coach Ryan Day told reporters there.
Minnesota has attempted to hold a spring game, but it’s been disrupted by injuries, weather or, this spring, both, for three straight years under P.J. Fleck."
