The FAA ground stoppage affecting air travel across the country may disrupt the Week 11 college football schedule, potentially causing Ole Miss' matchup against Oklahoma to be rescheduled from Saturday to Sunday. Ole Miss players were instructed to return home and report back at 7 p.m. EST on Saturday, with reports suggesting the team may fly out that night or proceed with the Sunday game.
As of 7 p.m. EST, players were told to return to the team facilities by 8:30 p.m. EST, and no alternative kickoff time has been provided by the SEC. The 2021 snowstorm resulted in a forfeit if Ole Miss' basketball team didn't arrive on time, highlighting the significant logistical challenges involved. Ole Miss aims for a 7-3 record, while Oklahoma seeks its sixth win of the season, with Jason Witten as the interim offensive coordinator.
