Fox Business Flash top headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on FoxBusiness.com.
It’s the last week before the conference championships -- college football has reached its benchmark.
The sport has nearly gotten through the regular season, even as 10 games were postponed or canceled because of coronavirus issues affecting schools. Six games involved schools in The Associated Press Top 25 and one matchup included the annual Ohio State vs. Michigan rivalry game.
One game that fans will still be able to watch is Army vs. Navy. Army will host the game for the first time in 77 years, and President Trump might even show up.
But before the last big swath of regular-season games takes place, read the brief previews below.
