SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey announced just moments ago that the SEC Football game between Florida and LSU has been successfully rescheduled. The game, which was originally scheduled to be played last week in Gainesville, was postponed due to Hurricane Matthew. Now the game will take place in Baton Rouge on November 19th.
In exchange, the 2017 game, which was supposed to be in Baton Rouge, will now be in Gainesville. At first glance, this seems like a huge turn of events in favor of LSU. However, that is not necessarily the case. If the game had been played as originally scheduled, Florida would have been without starting quarterback Luke Del Rio.
