LSU vs South Carolina moved to Baton Rouge

Hurricane Joaquin has passed, but the catastrophic flooding in South Carolina has not.

Dam breaches have led to massive flooding in the state, including in the the Columbia, S.C area. As a result, Saturday’s contest between the South Carolina Gamecocks and LSU Tigers scheduled to take place at Williams-Brice Stadium has been relocated from to Baton Rouge.

Per SECsports.com:

“Yesterday, we made the extremely difficult decision to cancel classes for the week due to the stress 34,000 students would place on the region’s recovering infrastructure, there is no doubt 85,000 fans would exact the same toll,” said USC President Harris Pastides.
