with Delta approaching, when is the latest they would have to make the call or would they just move it to missouri?

Delta = change

Too soon to predict path. Likely end up in Mobile area again

I'm not gonna pretend like I know anything but I'd assume they would move the game to Missouri, which should've happened in the first place because LSU hasn't played there since Mizzou joined the SEC 9 years ago.

If current path holds true, it will be past here on Saturday. Hitting Friday at Noon. Why move up. I think it go East of us

Vandy game should have been in BR
Mizzou should have been up there

Due to Fla fiasco it will be Sankey's call
If I'm LSU and I have any influence I would reach out to Houston to see if NRG is available or even Arlington for the Cowboys stadium. I bet they would accomodate the SEC.

I think it’s pretty simple. Have Mizzou plan to host as well.

You check updated path Wednesday. If it doesn’t look good. Play at Mizzou. If it looks fine. Don’t change anything.

Hopefully it is handled that way.

Early tracks are almost never right, but if the pace is correct, the storm will be in Nort Ga/North AL, or Tennessee on Saturday night...well out of reach of our game at 8 CST in Baton Rouge.

game being cancelled has more to do with surrounding impacts and player safety than anything else...doubtful mizzou would fly in here on Friday in the middle of a hurricane. 30 yrs ago the game would probably not be cancelled or moved but that is not how it works these days

Why do you think they scheduled it at 8pm to begin with?

They should start planning now to play in Missouri.
They can pull the trigger later, but a contingency plan needs to be made today and firmed up Tuesday if the hurricane is forecast to hit S La. Friday.

IF the storm holds to the predicted path and timing, IF it even holds to predicted strength. Lots of IFs in this.

Easiest plan to execute, move game to Mizzou. What would be harder is to change LSU's schedule for another home game, I vote for the Florida or Auburn. Put Sankey suck arse to the test.

No tailgates, small attendance, this is the year to move it with minimal effects.
