Many people are watching Hurricane Irma’s development very closely.
Irma is the latest big storm headed towards Florida, and it could be one of the worst storms in recent history. It is already a category five storm and is making its way through the Atlantic.
The Miami Hurricanes have already canceled their game against Arkansas State this weekend due to travel concerns associated with the storm. The Florida Gators have yet to announce their plans for Saturday’s home opener, but it appears the game time will be moved to noon.
Pat Dooley shared the report on Twitter:
Everything I'm hearing is that Florida-Northern Colorado game will be at noon. Expect confirmation soon.
