FAU-Southern Miss Week 5 Game Postponed Due to COVID-19

Saturday's game between FAU and Southern Miss has been postponed due to COVID-19 issues at FAU, the school announced Thursday.

"The health and safety of our student-athletes will always be our highest priority as we deal with this pandemic," FAU vice president and athletic director Brian White said. "We'll continue to work diligently with Conference USA and Southern Miss to reschedule this game."

A makeup date for the game has not been set.

“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," Southern Miss athletic director Jeremy McClain said in a statement.
