So, what is the explanation for the Illini playing today when Wisconsin was able to cancel its game with Nebraska under, basically, similar circumstances?
It's all in the numbers .....
And the numbers include staff etc. I think Wisco was based on 170 individuals and the testing.
"Team positivity rate is described as the “number of number of positive COVID-19 tests divided by total number of tests administered.”
If the team positivity rate is between 0% and 2%, that’s considered in the “green” range. Between 2% and 5% is the “orange” range, and any percentage greater than 5% is considered the “red” range.
Big Ten officials define population positivity rate and the “number of COVID-19 positive individuals divided by the total population at risk."
If the population positivity rate is between 0% and 3.5%, that’s considered in the “green” range. Between 3.5% and 7.5% is the “orange” range, and any percentage greater than 7.5% is considered the “red” range.
Conference officials will use these green, orange and red categories to determine when to alter or shut down practices and games for each team.
If a team is in the green range for both statistics or in the green for one and orange for the other, they can continue practices and games as normal."
