With Hurricane Ian barreling toward Florida's Gulf Coast, the college football game between Florida and Eastern Washington has been pushed from Saturday to Sunday in Gainesville.
The University of Florida announced the change Tuesday, saying it will continue to work with local and state officials to monitor the impact of the storm.
Florida (2-2) is coming off a loss to No. 11 Tennessee, while Eastern Washington (1-2) has lost two straight games.
The game, which will be held in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, will be a noon ET kickoff (ESPN+/SEC Network+).
The University of Florida has canceled classes from Wednesday through Friday.
Officials at Florida State are optimistic that Saturday's home football game against Wake Forest in Tallahassee will proceed as scheduled. The Seminoles and the Demon Deacons are set for a 3:30 p.m. kick on ABC.
"Following our most recent briefing today with authorities, University administration, transportation officials, security, law enforcement and emergency responders, we remain confident that we will be able to safely host Saturday's football game against Wake Forest at its scheduled kickoff time," FSU athletics director Michael Alford said in a statement Tuesday evening. "We will continue to monitor the hurricane and all weather advisories and take action if needed to ensure the safety of all involved."
