For those who were hoping to see Florida make up its 2014 canceled game against Idaho, you might be waiting awhile.
The rescheduled contest was supposed to take place in 2017, but the Vandals postponed the game and instead scheduled a contest against Missouri in its place.
The original game was scheduled for Aug. 30, 2014, but the game was delayed because of poor weather and then ultimately canceled. As a result of the cancelation, Florida agreed to pay Idaho $970,000, the original payout for the game, and then the two sides agreed to a reschedule in 2017, which Idaho announced in a press release.
However, Missouri offered to pay Idaho $1.3 million for a Oct. 21, 2017 contest, and the Florida game was scratched for that year.
According to the Spokesman Review, there is hope the game might still be played, but it’s unknown when.
