If A&M and La Tech dont have matching bye weeks, the game probably doesnt even get moved at all, because there would be no benefit to La Tech to go through the hassle of postponing for a couple days for such a flimsy excuse.

We also have a bit of history with these. In 2003 we played a game in Blacksburg, VA against Va Tech in the remnants of Hurricane Isabel without any issues. Blacksburg is also about 200 miles inland and was only about 275 miles from where Isabel made landfall as a borderline Cat2/Cat3 storm. Isabel was also a Category 5 major hurricane when it was offshore.
We've also had game moved in the past several days in advance because of Hurricanes Rita (2005) and Gilbert (1988), which were both among the most intense hurricanes ever recorded when those games were cancelled. Rita also having come in the aftermath of Katrina and thus at the height of hurricane panic.
