Ok, so we get the game in, but is that really a good idea?

A good percentage of the USF players are from the Tampa Bay Area, so there will be some loss of focus, since their families may be without power and basic services.  Travel and prep are going to be tough for USF, since the storm may not clear the Tampa Bay Area until early Friday.  We are already an underdog and now we are giving up our crowd - that stadium holds 29k and I would be shocked if there are 5k there, probably 25% ECU.  In addition, our road performance under Scott is not exactly stellar.

betting against USF this weekend seems like easy money

This is like 2020 when you didn't know if you would be playing the game even days in advance... we have sort of kind of been here before. 

Yeah and we sort of kind of finished 1-8 that season

No way this is going to pay off like when CSH took the team to offsite training camp.

We did beat Notre Dame that year, so we have that going for us, which is nice

How so? Did you know FAU is turf and we have fast runners? Might bode well.

If you mean by turf - real grass. It has never been artificial turf and we have been getting tons of rain down here for last 24 hours. We will have small crowd but we will be loud.

The Palm Beach Post reporter that broke the story has added additional ESPN sources so apparently this is a real thing and will be announced by the schools later today.

Must have been the story I just read:

FAU (2-3) and North Texas (2-3) will play Saturday in Texas, leaving a venue and better forecast for the Bulls (1-3) and Pirates (2-2) on Saturday.
