Are the options to reschedule the Florida-LSU game realistic?

With the Thursday announcement that No. 18 Florida’s home game with LSU has been indefinitely postponed because of Hurricane Matthew, the ultimate scramble to figure out if these two teams can play again in 2016 is on.

Opinions -- and rage -- have flourished when it comes to the late decision on Saturday’s postponement. Maybe it came too late, but remember that no matter what a storm looks like it could do on Tuesday, everything could change on Thursday. Right or wrong, Florida officials and the SEC waited until the very last possible second to see if this game could be played in Gainesville this weekend, and by late Thursday, that just wasn’t possible.
