This isn’t the first hurricane to have an impact on the college football season, as Hurricane Helene forced the Florida A&M and Alabama A&M to be rescheduled until November 29.
One of the coolest moments in the college football world from last weekend was in Raleigh, North Carolina. The NC State and Wake Forest bands performed together at the half as a tribute to all of those impacted by the hurricane in the Carolinas.
