According to UF reporter Zach Abolverdi: "Hearing from multiple sources that it's very unlikely Florida moves the LSU game to Baton Rouge."

Is canceling a real possibility?

Where are they looking? Tampa?

Surely they aren't trying to keep it in Gainesville?

Lsu isn't wishing for the game to be moved we are simply using common sense that it should be.

Sorry I just don't see how they can justify pulling officers off of the recovery to come to a football game. Wonder where they're planning? Tampa maybe?

Haven't seen what the alternative is, but Abolverdi is usually a reputable guy.

I expect them to play in Gainesville, but I don't have sources or have inside info

Me too I guess I wouldnt mind if it is in BR, but they better keep it at 11am. I was looking forward to having Saturday afternoon and night to myself


I would love for them to play it somewhere besides BR so my in-laws cant complain as well

I actually want the game in Gainesville. Want to see O coach on the road. Administration isn't concerned about beating Mizzou, Southern Miss, and South Alabama. Playing in Gainesville is one that will be used as a judging point when they decided who our coach will be

I did read that Florida is not budging on playing in Baton Rouge. I read that UF officials have said that playing it in Baton Rouge is simply not going to happen

Don't care where it is played, but it seems like Gainesville is a bad idea. Going to be pissed if the game winds up being cancelled because UF wouldn't relocate.

Put it Tampa, Houston, NO, BR, Dallas, idgaf.

This. I wasn't expecting it to be in BR so it doesn't matter but I just don't want it to be cancelled.
