Hurricane Matthew is expected to reach Category 4 along the Southeastern seaboard — particularly the states of Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina — as early as Friday morning.
The status for Florida’s noon game against LSU is still in question. An announcement is expected to be made at 5 p.m. Thursday.
Reports out that Florida and SEC now won't make decision until 5 p.m. today.
