OSU To Limit Players Families At Football Games

Ohio State University will no longer allow relatives of  Buckeye and opposition football players inside Ohio Stadium, starting Saturday

OSU limited fans to a few hundred when the 104,000 seat stadium resumed play last month.  The university says the new rule is designed to maintain compliance with the Columbus and Franklin County stay-at-home advisory.  The school says it also means no fans at men's and women's hockey or basketball games for the remainder of the year. 

Officials plan to re-evaluate the rule before the highlight rivalry Michigan game on December 12th.
