Officials from LSU and BYU reportedly met with ESPN on Sunday to discuss possibly moving the season opener in Houston due to Hurricane Harvey which has caused “catastrophic flooding” in the city.
The game is scheduled to be played on Saturday, September 2nd in NRG Stadium but potential relocation options could include LSU's Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge or the Superdome in New Orleans. Per SBNation.com:

“Officials from both schools will meet with ESPN on Sunday to discuss moving the game away from Houston’s NRG Stadium,” the report reads. “Two potential relocation sites are LSU’s Tiger Stadium or New Orleans’ Mercedes-Benz Superdome. A source told SB Nation both schools are committed to playing the game Saturday in a different city.”
