Ole Miss, Southern Miss football monitoring Hurricane Delta in advance of Saturday games

Southern Miss and Ole Miss are scheduled to host football games on Saturday as Hurricane Delta is expected to be crossing through Mississippi. The athletics directors from both schools have released statements regarding the status of those games.

"We continue to monitor the weather forecast for this weekend and its impact on Saturday’s football game," Ole Miss athletics director Keith Carter said in a tweet. "There are currently no adjustments to the schedule which calls for a 5 p.m. kickoff. We remain in communication with the SEC and Alabama and will update fans if plans change."

"We continue to closely monitor the weather situation in the Gulf of Mexico and remain in constant contact with state and local emergency officials," Southern Miss athletics director Jeremy McClain said in his statement.
