All eyes are on the tropics as Floridians prepare for one of the most intense hurricanes in the past ten years. Hurricane Matthew is bearing down on Haiti right now.

The forecast track has moved the storm a little more westward, which could affect the East coast of Florida by Thursday evening into Friday. This could affect the LSU/Florida game set for 11:00 a.m. Saturday morning.

Hurricane Matthew is a category four storm right now, with 145 mph winds. Here is the latest projected path of the storm.

I am sure officials from both schools and the SEC are watching the storm and may make a decision on the game time and/or maybe even moving the game to a different location by Thursday or Friday. That is just my opinion. We will have to see what happens.
