So I'm late to this, but read the thread...and I still don't quite get why we're moving a game up earlier that's in Connecticut.  So they have time to fly back just in time for the hurricane?  Not being a douche, just honestly confused...

Tropical storm winds forecasted in the Tampa area Saturday evening so issue is getting their plane back before that happens. I like the idea of safety before football.

Why not get their plane back AFTER that happens? Seems even safer...

Because they wouldn't be able to come back until Monday or Tuesday

Just a note... NHC states that wind estimate map is still in the experimental stages. They also have one that shows the most likely arrival time of the winds which puts the wind getting here much later.

Best guess is that they will be flying charter again like they did for the SJSU game.

They always do.

What harm is there in spending a few extra fall days in Connecticut? Will campus be open on Monday or Tuesday?

Serious question because I was fortunate enough to have my time at USF be hurricane free. Will the players (or students in general) go home or will they ride it out in the dorms?
