South Carolina cancels game vs. Marshall as Hurricane Florence approaches state

South Carolina has canceled Saturday's scheduled game against Marshall with forecasts now placing the state in the probable path of Hurricane Florence.

"Whether or not the game could have been played, we made the decision we think is best for the state and those who are evacuating the coast," South Carolina athletics director Ray Tanner said. "There is no question this is the right thing to do and the decision was supported by President Pastides, Coach Muschamp, our Board members and myself."

South Carolina said it will look for an opportunity to play a 12th game later in the season.
