Florida may have but --- from Wikipedia "James Frank McElwain was born in Missoula, Montana in 1962. He played quarterback at Sentinel High School in Missoula where he was chosen as an all-state quarterback.[1] He then went on to play quarterback in college at Eastern Washington from 1980 to 1983, and he earned a degree in education.[1]"

I say we plan 7 on 7 in the O'Connell Center.

Or maybe Baseket Ball at their basketball practice gym.

Has to be a Y somewhere in Gainesville available for game of dodgeball.

I wonder if they are considering a home game Sunday with no fans, similar to what the Orioles did during the riots. That would require minimal security, no concessions, extra hotels, etc

That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

I am honestly embarrassed by UF right now.

SEC won't allow that. They want to keep the TV slot. Will move to BR before this happens.

Just look back to the LSU/USC game last year.

Still not guarantee that the hurricane would be gone or that the field would be playable. Also, we still have to get into Florida. Which with friday having estimated possibility of up to 70 mph winds and all of the east coast moving inland...would be a shite show.

Again its not just about the field being playable.

That would be the weirdest game to watch ever in football. It would feel like it's just a practice on the field.

They could play in an empty Swamp on Sunday, then you don't have to worry about police, ems etc. This is assuming LSU could fly in Saturday.

I don't think it's going to happen, was just throwing out a crazy scenario

I'm hoping the Dome or Mobile if they refuse BR

I don't know what it is about about McElwain, but he has one of those dumb faces. When I watch him speak, I feel like the wheels are grinding so hard inside.
