That's the point, doofus. Hurricanes are unpredictable. That's why to get out in front of the situation and make contingency plans prior to it being too late. That's the point of the Wednesday deadline that it set. Every other school hosting a game in south Florida has already made arrangements to move their games. Meanwhile, UF is standing by waiting until it's too late.

Moving the game yesterday was not out of their control and they could have then diverted all of their attention locally to the hurricane and let someone else fool with a football game. Instead, they were stubborn and here we are

"you know what I think? I think I could have used this information YESTERDAY!" Are you fricking serious, dumbass? They knew there was a hurricane heading their way since Monday. They had plenty of time to relocate this game.

This is why there are things called contingency plans. This is why there are people who get paid a lot of money to make critical decisions well in advance.

Why? We've been told all morning it will be sunshine and maybe some wind on Saturday.

What's the rush? Seems like a pretty big decision to make.


Most of the journalists and perhaps the LSU equipment truck are supposed to travel today.

Auburn fans were joking before our game that it was the Hot Seat Bowl. Now we like Gus?



I have seen a lot of the national media say that Gus is on the hot seat. I have been saying since before the season.....as long as his team doesn't quit on him, and the team shows improvement, Gus is no where near the hot seat. They buy-out is a consideration. The revolving door of HCs is also a major consideration. Continuity builds success. Auburn is in dire need of continuity.

What was the weather like the day after the last hurricane hit Louisiana? Hurricanes normally move in and out quickly. The aftermath is what takes so long to bounce back from. If you are from Louisiana, you know this though.

So Joe Alleva, the guy who LSU fans say fricks up everything he touches, has zero blame? It's not possible that he is the fly in the ointment?

Blame is on SEC officials. I believe the buck ultimately stops with them.
