As Hurricane Milton approaches Florida, we’ve started to see the storm impact college football games.
The South Florida Bulls and Memphis Tigers were scheduled to play at Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium, USF’s home field this Friday night.
However, on Tuesday morning, the Bulls announced that the game was being moved to Saturday at 3:30.
The USF-Memphis football game will not be played on Friday evening.
For now, it has been rescheduled for Saturday at 3:30pm.
We will assess the conditions & overall situation after the storm has passed to determine if any further adjustments are necessary.…

USF also noted that they’ll monitor the storm and its aftermath and move the game again if necessary. The NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who also play at Raymond James Stadium, are on the road on Sunday, taking on the New Orleans Saints. If the game can’t be played on Saturday, Sunday will be an option.
Hurricane Helene also saw multiple college football games rescheduled or canceled a couple of weeks back. Unfortunately, this happens during every college football season, especially with so many teams located near the Gulf of Mexico or Atlantic Ocean.
