TAMPA, SEPT. 29, 2019 – The USF football team's game Saturday at the University of Connecticut has been moved up to a noon kickoff in East Hartford, Conn., as a precautionary measure due to a recent mosquito-borne virus.
The change in kickoff for the game, previously scheduled for 7 p.m., was announced by UConn and the American Conference Sunday morning. Broadcast arrangements for the contest are still being determined and will be announced at a later time.
UConn moved Saturday's kickoff at Pratt & Whitney Stadium to noon as a safety precaution after receiving guidance from the Connecticut Department of Public Health as it relates to the mosquito-borne eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) virus.
