Hurricane coming. Anyone heard that?
Should be gone by Saturday, right? Unless it blows away the stadium, the game should not be in peril.
iād hate to wish a blown stadium on anybody, butā¦
Play it up here.
#FAU is monitoring Hurricane Matthew. A decision on the status of all campuses for later this week will be made by Wed., Oct. 5, at 9 a.m.

I havenāt looked in the O, but I doubt thereās any info in it. Theyāre too busy printing 7 or 8 free marketing promos for the cheats in chapel hill.
I knew it would be āgoneā by Saturday, but I was wondering what would be in the aftermath, i.e. flooding, property damage, power outages, and yes, damaged fau stadium. Not to mention our teamās having to be there prior to game day/time.

If we donāt play, I guess that means we donāt have to read your statements after a loss telling us that winning solves everything, correct?

Best of luck to all.

If it were the official athletic site, you might have a legit gripe on that front.

Hard to fault them for using our initials when characters are limited.
If Iāve said it once, Iāll say it a hundred more times: As long as weāre the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, weāll be UNCC. Simple as that.
