ESPN: UMass is cancelling its fall football season, the school announced Tuesday.
An FBS independent, UMass may attempt to play a season this spring, athletic director Ryan Bamford said.
“The continuing challenges surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic posed too great of a risk, and we reached the conclusion that attempting to play a season would not have placed the members of our program in the safest situation possible,” Bamford said in a statement.
