Columbia also had snow. Has anyone heard anything official from Kim or our AD? Same with our Gymnastics team who has a meet at Arkansas in 2 days.

Advocate article says team will practice today and fly out this afternoon. I assume there is equipment at airport that can clear snow. Temps will move above freezing today. No clue about conditions in Columbia.

Did you know Kim’s son played baseball for LSU? His name is Kramer.

Morning flights out of New Orleans are canceled, but afternoon flights are happening. So I'm guessing Baton Rouge will be the same. They will take the morning to clear the runways and the planes. (Just checked some random flights from BTR to CLT, morning flights canceled, afternoon flights ok.)

Thanks for letting us all know that safety is #1.

Such a key part of your post.

Looks like BTR is closed to all air traffic at the moment

BTR 01/050 BTR AD AP CLSD EXC
EMERG HEL 2501212024-2501222359
Closed

!BTR 01/051 BTR AD AP FIXED BASE
OPR CLSD 2501212025-2501222359

I know they aren’t allowing small planes to operate until 1800 today

LSU charters a jet and usually parks at signature. I wonder if the plane is here

You’re right. Safety is the number once concern for our football team……both free safety and strong safety.

Temperatures will only be slightly above freezing today and tomorrow. Roads are being treated and airport should be fine. Columbia is 1 hour from my house in Augusta.

No way they get out of town today. I bet they end up playing the game Friday

Steer clear of any comment section involving this game. SC must have 1 billion WBB fans and they are nauseating. Same thing every year

Airport is open but pretty much all commercial flights are cancelled. So I would assume a charter is good to go.

I still expect this to get postponed. The airport can be open all day long, but a bus still has to get the team to the airport. Kinda hard to do that today.

Why would a bus not be able to get there?
You know you can go from LSU to airport without getting on elevated interstate.
They can take surface streets

Maybe that isn't the reason. Who knows. But I'm sure the decision was made using facts that none of us are privy to.
