First article I've seen on it:

The only way UCF wins is if the game doesn’t get played. I got UC over UCF big of it does get played.

The storm will hit late Wednesday/early Thursday and will be long gone by Friday.

There is no way this game gets played when we've cancelled two games before for much less.

What is this now, 3 game cancellations over the past 6 seasons?

 

[Retnuhrace]

The track dipped south (closer towards me in West Palm). So if that verifies both Tampa and Orlando will be out of the core of the major stuff

 

[PositYourself]

The game will be cancelled even if it hits Morocco. Pussies.

The game will be cancelled even if it hits Morocco. Pussies.

True. Malzone wants to cancel.

True. Malzahn wants to cancel.

Perhaps. We shall see.

Is UCF football still playing Cincinnati?​

As of Tuesday afternoon, Saturday's football game between UCF and Cincinnati is happening as planned.

UCF announced Tuesday that the teams are still scheduled to kickoff at 3:30 p.m. ET at FBC Mortgage Stadium in Orlando. The game is slated to be broadcast nationally on ESPN2.

I doubt duh*bulls game happens on saturday though....

USF's scheduled home football game against Memphis was also moved from a Friday night kickoff to Saturday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. ET, but USF coach Alex Golesh said that will be reevaluated Thursday after the storm makes landfall.

 

[Flstan]

The real question is will there be enough Police available to host the event as resources are spread thin and tapped out from working long hours ahead and during the storm.

Has UCF indicated when plans for the Cincy game will be announced?

 

[Central Floridave]

From the AP Thur morning. Why we can’t get word from UCF is beyond me.

UCF, USF games still on

A pair of college football games are set to be played Saturday in cities that dealt with some of Milton’s worst wind and rain, though there were some logistical issues that were still being discussed on Thursday in the aftermath of the storm.

In Tampa, USF is preparing play host to Memphis — a game that was pushed back from Friday to Saturday. And in Orlando, UCF is preparing to play host to Cincinnati.

Both games are scheduled to have 3:30 p.m. kickoffs.

The move to Orlando means the city will host two college football games on Saturday. UCF’s home game at Cincinnati is set for the same time at FBC Mortgage Stadium, the Knights’ home stadium. Camping World Stadium serves as the site for the Cure Bowl, the Pop Tarts Bowl and the Citrus Bowl.

It really won't hurt their fan attendance one bit and they won't take up a lot resources because they don't need many cops to park 9 cars.
