It looks like Florida State may not be able to make the trip to the Orange Bowl in Southern Florida this Friday night to play Miami for the second time.
The game was originally supposed to be played Monday night, but because of Hurricane Frances it was postponed until this Friday.
Now with Hurricane Ivan hovering some 1,600 miles from Miami, as of yesterday afternoon, and blowing winds of up to 115 mph, officials may postpone the game to even later in the season but have yet to issue a decision.
Miami's Athletic Director Paul Dee said he would consult Florida State, the ACC and ABC, which is set to televise the game, before making his decision early this week, keeping the safety of both teams and their fans in mind, according to ESPN.com.
Dee's decision could have major Bowl Championship Series implications. Should the game be rescheduled to later in the season, a loss by either Miami or Florida State could impact the BCS standings as the rankings come down to the wire, and could stand to change Virginia's place in the ACC and BCS.
