This could foul up my weekend

I have 3 tickets to the A&M/Texas State game Saturday night. Looks like it might be rescheduled to get it in before Hurricane Rita.

This reminds me of the Alabama game in 1988. Bama refused to travel to College Station because of Hurricane Gilbert (which hit Mexico), because they did not want to put their players in danger. The game was rescheduled for December 4, after the UT game, and, incidentally, after the Bama quarterback was healthy. A&M was bowl ineligible that year, so we dubbed the Bama game the "Hurricane Bowl", and everyone threw parties serving hurricanes before the night game at Kyle Field.

The Aggies lost, to complete their non-conference schedule at 0-4 (LSU, Nebraska, Oklahoma St, Bama). What do you think Mike Leach would do with THAT non-conf slate?
