With devastating floods still impacting the area around Columbia, S.C., the University of South Carolina has moved its scheduled football game Saturday against LSU to Baton Rouge.
The school announced the change Wednesday after "consultation with state and local officials, law enforcement, the SEC and LSU."
Kickoff time and other ticket information will be announced later.
“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,” South Carolina president Harris Pastides said in a release.
