Severe weather across much of the South and Midwest meant a chaotic first weekend for college football. Fans danced in the rain, stormed the field, or headed for the exits during weather delays. No. 9 Georgia and Louisiana-Monroe’s game was called with 9:54 left on the clock because of lightning. Intermittent lightning strikes near Baton Rouge prolonged a delay of No. 14 LSU’s season opener with McNeese State and the game was canceled. Kent State’s game at Illinois that was scheduled for Friday was postponed until Saturday. The delay did not seem to affect the Illini – they won 52-3. – AP
