Report: LSU vs. Missouri to Take Place in Columbia Because of Hurricane Concerns

The LSU vs. Missouri game, which was previously scheduled for Saturday at 9 p.m. ET in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, will now reportedly be held at Columbia, Missouri's Faurot Field due to Hurricane Delta.

Brooks Kubena of the Advocate provided the report and noted the timing and projected locations for the storm.

"The Category 4 Delta is the sixth gulf storm to take aim at Louisiana, and weather projections forecast the storm is expected to make landfall in southeast Louisiana on Friday night or Saturday morning," Kubena wrote.

Neutral-site options such as Shreveport, Louisiana, Houston and Arlington, Texas, were considered before school and SEC officials moved the game to Missouri's home field, per Kubena.
