  "account": "Oklahoma's athletic director Roger Denny expressed frustration over the SEC's decision to reschedule OU's Saturday afternoon football game against Ole Miss to Sunday. The reason, Denny argued, was that the FAA's nationwide ground stoppage on Friday afternoon prevented Ole Miss from making the trip to Oklahoma City in time for the originally scheduled game. Denny called the SEC's decision \"inexplicable\" and said it was unfair to the players, the university, and the fan base. The SEC defended the move, stating that a late-night departure could not be accommodated by the charter company Ole Miss was contracted with. Ole Miss does not have an airport near campus; it flies out of Tupelo Regional Airport, which is about a 50-minute drive away. The charter company did not operate out of Tupelo on Friday, leaving Ole Miss with limited options for getting its team to Oklahoma City.",
