Early Thursday morning, the University of Georgia released a statement concerning the MTSU vs. Georgia game Saturday.

Kickoff was moved to Noon ET/11 CT, due to the uncertainty of the weather and the approaching Hurricane Florence. The schedule change will also affect the television coverage as the game has been moved from ESPN 2 to ESPN News. 

Here is the statement from the University of Georgia Athletic Association in its entirety:

After extensive evaluation involving the uncertainty of weather conditions on the east coast, and consideration of all constituencies involved including fans, support staff, and law enforcement, the Saturday Georgia-Middle Tennessee game has been moved from 7:15 p.m. to a 12-noon kickoff in Sanford Stadium. 

The game will be televised on ESPN News and will stream live on the ESPN app.
