There's going to be several games cancelled. We don't share a BYE with UNC, but maybe the ADs of all the affected programs can get together and do some horse trading.

UCF needs to do something. Losing a game on the schedule only hurts them. Especially a p6 slam dunk win.
As for ECU, if it's canceled I hope we can pick up another game with another school. A buy game to help with our financials. After losing to A&T i am not sure how realistic a bowl game is for us so if we can put another game on TV and get paid by someone who needs a game (can't believe I am saying this but the state of our program is not good), we could really use the revenue.
If not, call a slam dunk FCS school, and remind the guys what its like to win, maybe we sneak into a bowl and get the extra practice. I hate just losing a game but I don't think playing this game versus VT is really ideal for us at the moment anyways.

We share a bye week with Marshall... Oct 27th
Norvell will let you know Saturday at 8am
I am headed to Ann Arbor. Will the hurricane make it all the way there?

I think you might witness a somewhat different type of disaster.
Whoops, put this in the wrong thread...

Nebraska is trying to get another game also after being rained out. If I were UCF i'd be trying to work out a makeup game with them. Imagine the ratings for that. Wow!!
Governor of Maryland has issued a state of emergency. Most likely the Temple at Maryland game will be cancelled.

I suspect that UNC has no desire to reschedule this game. They want no part of UCF.

Amazingly enough, both UCF and Nebraska have their bye week on October 27, so this is 100% doable...

After last season when UCF was in the same spot Frost really should be ok with that makeup game between those two.
I wish our Rhode Island game would get cancelled. Nobody needs another UCONN loss.
If I were UCF I would be trying to schedule a game with Nebraska. Beating a big name opponent would really help them down the line. Much more so than a hapless UNC.

Don’t want to go on the road to Nebraska and follow it up with a short week Thursday Temple game.
I’d prefer to add a home game and tell Marshall to come to Orlando.
@UCF_Football has been pretty clear they don’t plan on scheduling a new game.
Looks like ECU is headed to Orlando tomorrow for an early vacation. Looks like VT game is cancelled.

The Navy game is still on. We love playing in the rain.
