South Florida and UConn called off their game in Connecticut because of travel concerns. Central Florida also announced its scheduled Friday night home game with Memphis had been called off. The Memphis-UCF game had been moved from Saturday to Friday because of the threat.

Still think they should have just sent UCF to Memphis this year, and returned the favor next year. Its been done before.

They cancelled teh UCF vs GT game for this week as well. According to UCF fans, the issue (last week and this week) was that the players were sent home to take care of their families and have not been able to get back to campus. UCF is the only FL team (tmk) to cancel this week's game.

The UCF vs. GaTech game was cancelled because the National Guard was using the stadium as a staging ground. Had zero to do with the players being unable to get back to campus. My daughter was back to campus on the Wednesday before the game, only to find out that classes were cancelled until Monday.
