With Hurricane Ian bearing down on Florida, and an OOC patsy on the menu, I'd say this week's game isn't going to happen. I'm sure both teams want to play it, one for the win and one for the payday, but that hurricane will have just left town 24 hours prior. Anyone have the inside baseball on this?

Thanks Caiman. I wish they would just set a date/time for a press conference to make the final decision. This scenario is familiar, and I suspect they're going to call the game off, but a scheduled presser for say, Thursday, would be nice.

You can bet Napier has been in Stricklin's office pleading the case of "we need to play this game, even if the Swamp is a swamp". At this point the Gators need the reps against a vested opponent. Need to get the young guys some snaps, especially the safeties, and the "W" wouldn't hurt either.

I have been watching webcams this morning, with water washing over the seawall in St. Augustine and parking lots underwater in St. Augustine and Fernandina.
I am flying to Jacksonville next Wednesday.

My Mom's trying to fly into MCO on Saturday. The forecast is clear but that's from the same people who said this hurricane would go through Apalachicola, then they said Tampa, and never even considered Fort Myers. So let's just say "we'll see".

The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful. Mom's here, too - no problems with travel.
Yesterday I discovered that SlingTV (my streaming provider) has a price dispute with Disney Corp, who owns ESPN. So guess what? No ESPN channels on my $46/month subscription now (they simply pulled the channels without notice), and also guess what? ESPN is the ONLY reason I even use Sling. So I got "Hulu + Live TV" for $55/mo (going up to $75 in 3 months), and will be cancelling Sling until they get their sh!t together. The only saving grace is these streaming services don't have long term contracts. I just turn them on during CFB season and back off in January. Or, in this case, just turn them off to jump to another one, at will. Esa es la vida.
