307dude Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 That sucks. If BSU is as good, or better, than advertised, they're going to be going scorched earth on the rest of the league this year to make the point they won't get to make in Jacksonville on Saturday night. Talk about shit luck. Good news for any Bronco fans making the trip is that the airlines are pretty accommodating these days when hurricanes screw up their customers' flight plans.

Our players are going to be devastated. I was hopeful until an hour ago when they upgraded the forecast to Cat 3. There is 0 chance in hell the Governor lets this game take place. Can't move it to Tally either as that is where people will be going to and passing through. +++++! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is blue and orange anyway and there's no game this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years ago, BYU was scheduled to play LSU in Houston. However, because of a hurricane and flooding, the game was moved s few days before to New Orleans. Maybe this game should be moved to Ram Stadium in Fort Collins? Okay, you're getting too repetitive and too predictable. C'mon Stunner, you're better than this!

It's inland. It'll still get hit but not near as bad as things will probably get on the coast. And if it's going to get played on Saturday, it'd make more sense to play it at an inland location than it would at a coastal one. And it's not 50 mins away. 50 mins away from here gets you out above Lake Butler somewhere, but not Jax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a project Cat 1.Obviously somethings are far more important than football, but this is a sports board. Prayers to all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
