South Carolina vs. LSU: Game Moved to Baton Rouge Due to Flooding

South Carolina is moving its scheduled home game against LSU to the opponent's Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as the Gamecocks' home state begins to recover from devastating floods.

Brett McMurphy of ESPN first reported the news. Bleacher Report's Barrett Sallee provided comments from South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier about the change of venue.

"It appears the best thing is to travel to LSU," Spurrier said. "We look forward to the challenge and competing against the Tigers in Baton Rouge."

Athletic director Ray Tanner stated Tuesday that Williams-Brice Stadium actually came through the weather in good shape, according to ESPN.
