Logical thing would be to bring the game TO BR That does seem like the most logical thing to do and give them the home game in 2016. But their team has to be able to practice. Not to mention many of the players families are being impacted the flooding.


didn't seem to matter much for LSU in 2005 when the game was moved to Tempe...

LSU could practice Butch. The flooding was in New Orleans. The State just didn't have the infrastructure to host a football game.

It takes a lot of law enforcement to host a game the size of any SEC game.

law enforcement and medical staff in Columbia have more pressing concerns right now.

2005 and this is similar. but it isn't the same.
If SC campus is open and the player have access to practice facilities, then it's an obvious decision.

It may be a bit of a reach but neutral site (closer to USCe) may be in play. ATT Stadium in Arlington Texas has no games scheduled. But this is more of a stretch since the LSU fans would be the only ones willing to travel there for a game on short notice. I know for damn sure I would be there if they did!! And the Georgia Dome in Atlanta has one game at 2:30 with Georgia State and App State. One idea, if they go neutral site, could be to move that game up to 11am and schedule LSU vs USCe for a night kickoff. This would be shorter distance to travel for USCe fans and be great for Tiger fans and alum in GA.
