As someone who was optimistic until last night, there's not a chance in hell the game is played in Houston.

Posted by kajunman on 8/26/17 at 1:28 pm to Geauxgurt quote: People blowing off this storm in Htown now because it's not raining much now really don't have any common sense or logic. Houston is getting a short reprieve at the expense of places like Baytown because this storm stalled earlier than expected. Saturday wasn't the day they expected the highest issues. It will be through Tuesday and Wednesday when this storm breaks up into a massive downpour over the state. It's not a wostcase scenario by any means thankfully but this is likely just the calm before the storm for HTown. Originally from Morgan City La. , I've lived in Houston since 1968. Let me give you some common sense and logic. 1. The storm isn't going to backtrack into the gulf then plunge upward into Houston. The longer it remains over land the weaker it will become. 2. NONE of the bayous in the city are overflowing. In fact the over exaggerated news reporters have had a change in their delivery of what is actually happening. They appear disappointed. 3.The storm surge changed from 4-6 feet last night to 1-2 feet today. 4. What all this means is even with two days of heavy rainfall looming, the city's bayous will be able to handle the runoff. Bookmark me. NO WAY THE LSU GAME GETS CANCELLED UNLESS A TORNADO DESTROYS THE STADIUM. Water will not prevent the LSU vs BYU game from being played. And I will be there.


My mom used to say if you keep your mouth shut only you would know you're stupid.


People forget about hotel rooms. There won't be any in Houston for Football games. The hotels are going to be putting up FEMA and their contractors. The hotels will cancel any reservations you have in lieu of fed gov for a natural disaster. Also it takes a lot of resources in terms of LEO and eMS

I'd be surprised if there were 40,000 for a meaningless fourth preseason game

Just watching sportscenter and they stated the Texans flew to Dallas last night. Instead of playing in Houston Thursday night, they may move final preseason game to Dallas. At that point moving the LSU game to Dallas may become even harder because that would potentially be 3 games in 5 days.

I'm in the camp move it to New Orleans and don't lose that time slot in Saturday night.

Prayers for Houston families for sure though.

The original Cotton Bowl is an option.

Probably very low on the list.

Dallas is slated to get alot of nasty weather next week. I highly doubt the game will be played outside anywhere this depression is moving.

You jumped all over me yesterday for predicting a cancellation. Told me I was hoping for it.

Wrong and wrong. It's just that those of us who are actually from Houston know how these floods can go.

Not bragging, pointing out how much you were wrong because I don't like you.

FEMA just announced they anticipate being in Houston for a few years to rebuild from the flooding.
