Not giving a timeframe for starting probably means this is going to be a long delay. Like they might need to reschedule type delay



I'm betting this game does not happen at this point.

No one is saying it but this looks like it’s a stadium issue. Facilities like that actually own their own transformers. That’s most likely what blew. This is why you see power coming in to one side of the stadium and not the other. But to get it back up is like Gary Sinese powering up the LEM in Apollo 13. They need the startup juice for these old lights, then they have to warm up to full brightness.

This game is probably getting postponed. What a joke



I feel bad for the SMU fans. Drive or fly all that way/ for hotels, meals, etc only for the lights to go out be for the game.


I would be pissed.

Am I missing something?

There is more than enough light in that stadium to play.

If the only area without power is the press box, who tf cares

Can we send FSU to the Sun Belt.

I thought FSU and Clemson were too upscale for the ACC.

This is just an example of how precarious our position is as a society.

Cameras can make it look a lot brighter than it actually is. Happens a lot in racing.

Partially on. The problem is what if this is SMU’s only loss and there’s playoff seeding on the line? They’d claim it was all due to the lights and to disregard the loss.

Are they not LED lights? If so, would they not have changed some of the infrastructure when they installed them?
