Haven't seen this discussion anywhere else, so starting this thread. ECU backed out of its game this weekend at Blacksburg. Their administration decided is was too risky to play there and then potentially not be able to return to Greenville. Plus the folks in Greenville are susceptible to flooding and are very sensitive to the damage past storms have done. ECU is drawing a lot of criticism from VT fans since reportedly they made the decision without much consultation with VT. ECU team is now headed to Orlando to spend the week there in preparation for their game at USF on 9-22 at 8 p.m. in Tampa.
So, not that it will make a lot of difference, but VT will have more time to prepare for ODU on 9-22 and they will be well rested. I also wonder if this will through off ECU enough to affect their game with us on 9-29.
