Then Dennis joins the show to give a behind the scenes look at how conferences have reached their decisions to play (9:30), what the Big Ten might be thinking in regards to playing this fall (18:30) and whether opt-outs are going to become a growing trend for soon-to-be draft eligible players in college football (33:00).
