This reminds me of something that happened in the late 80s (believe fall of '88)... Texas Aggies were to host Alabama at Kyle Field (College Station, TX)... but the tide decided to postpone playing the Fighting Farmers due to the possibility of a hurricane blowing through the Gulf of Mexico into the Texas mainland... believe it is was hurricane Andrew.

The day of the postponed game it was perflectly sunny.

More like 'Bama decided to wimp out because their starting qb had a boo boo and the tide's head coach didn't want to face the Wrecking Crew.

Just like an Aggie to remember it that way.

It was hurricane Gilbert, and I lived in Houston at the time. They closed down the entire school system in southeast Texas, and while it did make a left turn at the end and head south, it killed over 500 people and caused billions in damage.

The wrecking crew ended up being a non factor though, when they did play the Tide later in the year at Kyle field Alabama stomped them 30-10.
