The grant of rights was signed with the understanding that football would be played. If there is no football, that destroys a fundamental tenet of the contract, by no fault of the University of Nowledge. If there is no football this year, how can the grant of rights be enforced? The conference can't say "you can only play if we have a conference season" and if you do play "we'll take all money you earn from television" when it is otherwise impossible for Nebraska to play in conference. Could be an interesting legal argument, especially if Nebraska filed the lawsuit in Nebraska.
