Cajuns, Arizona game delayed to Sunday

[NewsCopy]

UL — The rain was persistent and the radar wasn't promising Saturday, so NCAA tournament officials made the decision relatively early to wait for better news Sunday.

The Lafayette regional game between Louisiana and Arizona was postponed...

Just like today, it is a mistake not to play ball in the morning. Can the NCAA rep not read a forecast? It's going to rain again tomorrow. Not to mention, why not use the entire day and give yourself some room for error? Dumbassness from the NCAA, as usual.

So Arizona is using the old HUD qb undisclosed trick. I hope it works for them like it worked for our football team this year...

Virginia did this. Rained almost all day Friday and they got both games in first.

Had they used our schedule, they'd be (at best) where we are. And that's extremely optimistic.

Robe knows who they're starting, so whatever.

I keep trying to post my tickets on ticket exchange site but I keep getting an error. I want my tickets used for the remaining games

And raining about 6 blocks from the Tigue.

This. If powers that be were proactive instead of reactive. How hard is it to push game up to 10 am fri and Saturday? We would be on schedule at this point. It's June in Louisiana, it starts raining right after lunch time.

I went into detail in another thread about how much the ticket exchange sucks for delayed games. Basically after the scheduled start of our game (7 pm yesterday) you are unable to post tickets for resale. Despite the game not actually starting until 1 pm today.

I somewhat get not having a game in the morning yesterday, as you would have forced Princeton to have a pretty early wake up call after finishing a game around midnight the night before. But neither Arizona nor us played yesterday, so a 10 am game today seems reasonable as both teams would be adequately rested.
