Because Florida is the one team out of five that was unwilling to discuss contingencies in the week leading up to the game. Four other teams, no problem.

For the record, LSU didn't get what they wanted, they had to cancel a game for the second year in a row. LSU wanted to play Florida on the weekend it was scheduled - just like the other 4 games that were adjusted to accommodate weather conditions. For some reason UF is the only school who won't cooperate.

I saw someone make a comment like this the other day, but why isn't there contingencies in place? We all know the gulf, and east coast is prime tropical storm season this time of year. Perhaps the two teams when scheduling should find other venues just in case. As an opposing fan I could care less if one team doesn't get to play, as long as it doesn't give them an advantage. On the play off argument, it then goes back to , why the two teams didn't have a backup plan.

No, because Florida is a big boy like LSU and didn't let Alleva bully them around like they did to USC and now BYU.

Let's face it. LSU bullies other programs and tries to twist a crisis to their advantage. UF called them out on it, and they starting crying like babies when forced to "make-up" the free home game by traveling to Gainesville twice. Oh the horror!

But in the end, Florida won. In dramatic fashion. With some hilarious play calling buffoonery by CEO & company which irks their fan base to the utmost.

So get off your high horse; you picked a fight with a bigger kid and lost.
