The much awaited football game between the South Carolina Gamecocks and the Oklahoma Sooners, which was originally slated for this Saturday, has been rescheduled because of the severe weather that is expected in the area.
Early on Thursday morning, the decision was made after local meteorologists warned of heavy rain and possible thunderstorms that could endanger the safety of players, staff, and spectators.
Everyone’s safety is our top priority, according to Ray Tanner, athletic director at South Carolina. “We were expecting an amazing game, but the circumstances just won’t allow it to happen.”
In order to choose a viable date for rescheduling the game, both teams are now evaluating their calendars. The duel between the two legendary programs was anticipated to generate a sizable audience, as fans looked forward to it.
Shane Beamer, the head coach of South Carolina, acknowledged the decision’s necessity but voiced regret. “We’re as excited to compete as our supporters are to see us.
Whenever the game is rescheduled, we’ll be prepared,” he said. Similar thoughts were expressed by Oklahoma’s coach, Brent Venables, who acknowledged the enthusiasm surrounding the game while highlighting the need to keep everyone safe.
