LSU game moved to Missouri after Hurricane fears

LSU’s home game with Missouri has been moved to Faurot Field because of hurricane fears.

After much discussion, the two schools decided to move the game rather than delay it because of the oncoming onslaught of Hurricane Delta, which is expected to wreak havoc on the Louisiana coastline in the coming days.

SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said: “Due to the pending impact of Hurricane Delta on Louisiana and the surrounding area, it is in the best interest for the safety of everyone involved to move the game to Columbia,” SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said in a statement Wednesday. “It was critical to relocate the game to an SEC campus where SEC COVID-19 management protocols are in place and readily applied. I appreciate the cooperation of the schools who are working closely to make the appropriate operational adjustments in order to prioritize the health and safety of our student-athletes while accommodating this change in the schedule.”

There are also possibilities that you could see Alabama vs Ole Miss moved because of worries about the Hurricane, which is going to be less about the rain and more about wind intensity as it barrels its way further infield.
