Are you ready for some Sunday college football?
Florida Atlantic had been scheduled to host Charlotte this Saturday at 3:30 at FAU Stadium. Because of Hurricane Matthew, however, the university has tentatively moved that game to Sunday at noon.
A press release notes that "[t]he final determination of the status of the game will not be made until the storm system has passed through the Boca Raton area and a post-storm assessment has been made.”
“Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who is in the path of Hurricane Matthew,” said athletic director Pat Chun in a statement. “Supporting our community, state and region is the current focus of FAU Athletics. We thank our friends at Charlotte for their understanding and assistance.”
Charlotte-FAU becomes the third FBS game impacted by Matthew, joining UMass-Old Dominion (moved from Saturday to Friday night) and Tulane-UCF (moved from Saturday to Nov. 5). Final decisions on LSU-Florida in Gainesville and Georgia-South Carolina in Columbia are expected at some point today.
