looks like if the game does occur it will be a very small crowd. I just saw this come out from WCU. “Family Weekend activities, including the Legacy Pinning Ceremony, will be postponed until the final home game on November 16. More information will be communicated later.”

If they play this game I have to wonder if the recent events will be a huge distraction for the team where we come out flat like we did vs Campbell or if this provide motivation to the team the rest of the year. Like they are doing this for all of WNC

The motivation in this game is you need to win if you want to stay in the SoCon chase and play-off picture....PERIOD....I'm sure it might be mentioned but the driving force will be going 1-0 and getting ready for Citadel....I'm sure it will be on there mind about the flooding situation but I hope Coach Bell can keep them focused....

According to my sources on & near campus, the game is still on for this weekend. However, it's still only 48 hours post storm and things can change. Still limited cell service in the Whee, and many roads will remain impassible for days to weeks. We were going to stay way up 281 past Bear Lake. Not sure if that remote area will have power restored next weekend. Prayers for all those stranded and/or have property destroyed.

I saw the school just put out the promo materials for the game this weekend. I assume that means the game is on

Dude the game is going to be played.......I don't think that was ever in doubt ( They can't afford to throw away a conference game and not be able to make it up ).....For those who plan on making the trip you pack alot of water and food and plenty of cash.....Plus expect it to take alot longer ( allow several hours extra time ).....BE SAFE.....As someone posted before they have some roads cleared all ready and by next weekend several routes should be open....But if you don't feel safe making the drive then stay home and watch on TV.....Understandable

I am going to give it till the Nov 2nd game and try to head up for homecoming and see if the clean up has progressed
