Hurricane Florence related news involving games

Not that Stupid Upset Picks should be this board's top concern, but be mindful that Hurricane Florence is going to alter some of this weekend's Saturday's slate.

I see Wake v BC will now kick at 4:30 pm Thursday.

Here in Columbia, a lot of evacuees are inbound.

USC game is in doubt.

WVU offered Morgantown, I don't blame NC State for not taking that one.  I think a neutral site game would be too hard to work out at this point.

That was the lone Thursday night game this week I believe.  Wonder if it will still be on ESPN, or if they won't bother.  It might be a pain to rush to break the broadcast down afterwards and get out before the storm.
That's a shame, I was really looking forward to that one, two teams I had on the rise in my preseason rankings.

Disappointing that Doeren wouldn't bring his boys up to Morgantown for the game.

 I know a couple of you are in the path of this thing, and I know for certain Drew is in a direct path. He's getting out of there and won't be live here for a while. Going to his place in the UP. He will be safe there.

Climate change is a hoax, guys.  These cancellations due to radical weather increasing in recent years is just a blip.  I swear.

Great point. 

Not having hurricanes would have been the best part about living on the Earth before the climate started changing.

If there were only such data to show us Hurricanes making landfall in the Atlantic/Gulf so we can once and for all see the huge spike of relentless Hurricanes over the past several years compared to the times when we rarely saw Hurricanes.

Maybe change from an elephant to an ostrich?  Head in the sand and all.
