Just went to go pick up my student tickets at the ticket office and was told that they haven't been informed anything about the game being moved to Baton Rouge so he said that it probably won't be in Baton Rouge. Needless to say that wasn't the answer I was hoping to here. shite!!!!!! Florida needs to get a grip man and understand that they have a Category 4 Hurricane coming there way and that they need to move this game.

I don't see an issue here. Very few Florida fans would travel and most out of state LSU fans won't make it. Away weekends are always chock full of events. This would be a baton rouge crowd


I made that point yesterday. That's why I think it would make more sense to move it to the Superdome. More people would travel to Nola than they would BR for the game and Nola has the hotel capacity.

Just worries me that nobody has been told anything. This should have been done already.

Do you honestly think they would tell the ticket office workers first?

if they want people working the office as usual for a home game, yes. they would know pretty soon considering they don't usually work on-call.

He said the game is probably not going to be in Baton Rouge. He said more likely a neutral site. Whether he knows what he is talking about I don't know.

That's the likely scenario. UF DOES NOT want this game played in Baton Rouge.

I really hope your right and agree. I want this game in BR just like many other people. It only makes sense to bring it here. We did it last year why not this year as well.

Sure they have a say in the matter but soon the SEC will be making a decision on this not them.

It's more their descison than it is anyone else. The SEC I'm sure has final say.

IF the game is played at UF, then yes. If it is moved then it most certainly is not their decision as to where it is moved. It is a mutual one with SEC having final say.

I just don't see any way in hell this game is played in gainesville. I think its just a matter of where its moved vs IF its moved.

Even if you move it to Sunday, let's say it ends up being much worse than even anticipated, then you have a cancellation on your hands.
