"When all this is over, we'll need a diversion."

Rick Cleveland of the Jackson Clarion-Ledger summed up the storm's impact on the Tulane football team in today's issue. The team left New Orleans on Sunday and is staying at Jackson State while preparing for their game on Sunday with USM. The ADs are meeting today to decide whether or not to postpone their season opener.

No decision has been made on the Tulane - MSU matchup scheduled for Sept. 17 at the Superdome, but I have to think it will be either moved or canceled.
