Citing a source, ESPN's Heather Dinich reported that the Pac-12 could return to play as early as late October if county officials in the location of each program ease restrictions to allow teams to practice.

However, efforts will be made for late October start considering the firm date of the final College Football Playoff Rankings of the season on Dec.

That late-October would potentially match the Pac-12 up with the Big Ten, which announced on Wednesday that it will begin its football season the weekend of Oct.

Some of them began to fall Wednesday as the governors of California and Oregon made statements clearing the way for programs in both states to return to practice.

Some programs also need local health clearances as well, and two in the same county received it late Wednesday as USC athletic director Mike Bohn and UCLA athletic director Martin Jarmond spoke to Los Angeles County health officials and were encouraged that they would be able to practice when the Pac-12 scheduled a return to play, according to Jon Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News.

"We are eager for our student-athletes to have the opportunity to play this season, as soon as it can be done safely and in accordance with public health authority approvals," Scott said

If the Pac-12 receives the necessary clearances to begin practice in time for a late October start to the football season, it could restore a sense of normalcy to the 2020 college football slate after it initially appeared that only three of the Power Five conferences would be playing this fall
