Please play the game. I need normalcy.

Wondering if this game will be postponed or canceled all together.

Its' still on as of right now, but a facility review is pending. The team will fly back when operations resume at the airport.

Regardless, can't see why it would be moved…

How did Boca, the FAU campus and the stadium do from Irma?

Better than expected, some areas of Boynton still have power.

Even if they cancel the game, we'll be in the red lot blowing off some steam on Saturday! 

I'd be surprised if they canceled the game. Looks like they're letting students back on campus on Wednesday. Faculty and staff the next day.

Question is what kind of student support we'll get since classes don't start til Monday - students may take an extended break from campus including football.

And if there was major damage to the stadium you'd think we would have heard about it by now. I believe Rick posted a picture showing some minor damage to the south side of the scoreboard.

We wouldn't get support with or without the hurricane.

We are 0-2 coming home to play a D-1AA opponent.  Expect 5kish.

Selfishly, I hope it gets postponed to a later date but not canceled.  

If the choice is to either cancel or play the game in an empty stadium this week, then I am for playing it. We need a "W" for potential bowl eligibility down the road.
