Last year the South Carolina game was announced it was moving, I believe, on Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning and it was still a monumental undertaking to put on the game. We won't have an answer now until Thursday afternoon at the earliest

The logistics of it. Florida would have to load their equipment trailer, tiger stadium had to set up first responders, etc. I heard LSU needs 72 hours notice to pull it off, but I'd bet they could pull it off if they make the decision NOW.

I believe they even have to request more power from Entergy on gamedays. That is done pretty far in advance because power has to be routed from other parts of the state to do that.

You also have concessions, staff, parking, infrastructure, fricked up BRPD traffic plans, etc that all have to be organized.


It's not just a "Hey, let's go to TS thing" that you can do a day or two before
