Play was suspended at the 10:08 mark of the first quarter, after lightning struck nearby Tiger Stadium. Although the whether did not appear hostile at the time, that would change quickly.
Severe thunderstorms rolled through the Baton Rouge area all evening long, and the game was finally cancelled around 10:30 p.m. CT, over three hours after the delay began.
Each team only had one possession before the game was called, and neither made anything of the opportunity.
