The FAA ground stop has left a long list of US college football teams unable to fly to road games on Saturday 14 November, according to Fox's Outkick and Yahoo Sports.
Texas had boarded its plane in Austin for Baton Rouge before the stop. "We are grounded and waiting to see when we can leave", a Texas team spokesman said, quoted by AP in a report carried by Yahoo Sports. AP says a bus trip to Baton Rouge for the 6.30pm CT kick-off on Saturday would take about seven hours.
Yahoo Sports reports that three teams are switching to buses. It says North Texas will bus to UTSA for a 9pm ET kick-off on Saturday, Purdue will bus to Iowa and expects to arrive late on Friday, and Auburn will bus to Mississippi State for a 12pm ET game on Saturday.
Outkick, citing multiple sources, names Texas, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Washington, Minnesota, Baylor, Tulane, Auburn, Arizona State and Oregon State among the teams looking for alternative travel. It says USC had already taken off for its game at Indiana.
AP says NBA and NHL teams were also stranded, and that NFL teams were unsure whether they could travel this weekend. These reports have not been independently checked.
