Snowed-out MACtion forces league to shuffle pair of games

A winter storm that impacted one MAC game this week will do the same to another next week.

First things first: the Kent State-Buffalo game, scheduled for Wednesday night but postponed due to extreme weather conditions, has been tentatively rescheduled for Friday, Nov. 21. Instead of a night kickoff, however, the game will begin at 1 p.m. ET tomorrow afternoon.

Television information is to be announced later.

The MAC made sure to insert the word “tentatively” into the release. A severe winter snowstorm, which has been blamed for eight deaths, has dumped upwards of six feet of snow in the Buffalo area, with another 2-3 feet possible throughout the rest of Thursday and on into Friday.

Additionally,the conference announced that, due to this schedule change, next week’s Akron-Kent State game at Kent’s Dix Stadium will be rescheduled for Friday, Nov. 28 at 1 p.m. ET. That game was originally scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 25 at 7 p.m. ET.
