Look I would never be in favor of anyone in any dangerous situations with a hurricane in any form or fashion.

We all agree that that is first and foremost but this is a football board and to discuss football like we do is something we all look forward too.

I however like to discuss LSU football and can relate to what Florida is going through. If anyone can its LA. To sit here and sull about it and worry about it just bothers me.

The weather we can't control you can take precautions and prepare for it but its mother nature it will do what it does and we will see after the fact.

People in the sports industry don't need to use every conceivable angle to manipulate the media. Like Florida just did with the weather.

Just my take.

That was my point in the earlier post. FL could have helped their flood victims out with this game being played at another venue. I will guarantee that if this game was advantageous to FL they would have done everything in their power to play it. Period

Doesn't look like it will make a Fla landfall, so emergency personnel could have been reassigned at daylight Sat to work the game

They either need to schedule it ASAP for this weekend of formally declare a forfeit (or SEC declare it if they won't).

If they thought they were going to beat us they would have made every effort to play this game. Instead, they knew they would likely lose and found a way out.

On the bright side. It is nice to be feared again. We haven't really had that feeling the last couple of years.

Alleva needs to sic a team of lawyers on Sankey to have the game reclassified as a forfeit instead of a cancellation.

The precedent set by rewarding this bad behavior and poor sportsmanship will ensure that future such instances will be decided based on the home team's perceived probability of winning, not the practicality and feasibility of moving the game, or otherwise making alterations to the time/venue so as to ensure the game is played.

If Sankey was competent that what it would be.

Your coward team and coward AD are refusing to play a game our team and AD have offered to play anytime, anyplace.

That is not a cancellation, it is a forfeit. The SEC records for both schools should reflect this fact.

Your football team and AD are exploiting a natural disaster to avoid playing the toughest game remaining on their schedule. You proud of that?

Are you proud that your school is now University of Forfeit?

Are you proud that South Carolina's football team is made up of better men than yours?
