By Kyle Koster
The LSU-Florida game postponed by Hurricane Matthew last weekend will be played in Baton Rouge on Nov. 19, according to multiple reports.
A source confirms to The Advocate that #LSU will, indeed, host Florida on Nov. 19.

Both schools will buy out of their non-conference games.
Presbyterian’s athletic director said his team hopes to play at South Alabama on that day.
The agreement means Florida is losing two home games this year and prevents LSU from playing three consecutive road games. LSU will visit Gainesville in 2017 and 2018.
The Gators-Tigers game could have a major impact on both SEC divisions so it’s good that a compromise was reached.
