The South isn’t the only area of the country in which college football games are being impacted by the weather.
Central Michigan was set to kick off its 2019 season at seven p.m. ET tonight in a matchup with FCS Wagner in Mount Pleasant. However, because of “impending severe weather in the area,” start time for that game has been pushed back by an hour.

CMU is kicking off its first season under new head coach Jim McElwain, who was hired following the 1-11 season posted by the Chippewas. That marked the program’s worst record since it moved to the FBS level 44 years ago.
