Two SEC games still in holding pattern because of Hurricane Matthew
As watches and warnings for Hurricane Matthew continue to spread across Florida and up the Eastern Seaboard, two SEC football games remain in a holding pattern.
Those two games, LSU at Florida in Gainesville and Georgia at South Carolina in Columbia, remain on for now, but their status is far from certain. The Florida-LSU kickoff is scheduled for noon; the Georgia-South Carolina kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
Florida’s athletic department issued a statement early Wednesday afternoon, saying the school would provide a further update after 5 p.m., following the National Hurricane Center’s advisory on Matthew’s predicted strength and course.
