Southern Miss vs. Florida Atlantic football game postponed due to COVID-19

Southern Miss' matchup with Florida Atlantic has been pushed back to a later date.

The reasoning behind the rescheduling of the original Saturday date was due to COVID-19, Southern Miss athletic director Jeremy McClain said.

"We understand this COVID-related decision made by Florida Atlantic to not play our game this weekend and appreciate the consistent communication with our athletic department during the week," McClain said, according to a press release. "We are disappointed for our student-athletes who will not get a chance to participate, however we will work with Florida Atlantic and Conference USA to reschedule this game for later in the season.
