re: This isn't just about Florida

In all fairness, Florida has an upper hand. They can easily say that players and coaches need to take care of life and property in the next 48 hours - that's the priority. Making them play a game when their loved ones may need help (think evacuating grandparents, etc) would potentially be a PR disaster for the SEC.

I think they had to yield. But I think Florida intentionally played that card because they should have prepared which would have forced players and coaches to prepare well I advance for those things. They had the time.
