On Friday afternoon, the Federal Aviation Administration grounded all flights in the United States “due to extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety,” the FAA said in a statement.
Several college football teams have been impacted by the nationwide air travel pause, including Oregon State.
The Beavers (5-4, 3-2 Pac-12) are stuck in Corvallis ahead of Saturday’s 4 p.m. Mountain time matchup with No. 24 Boise State (8-1, 5-0). ESPN’s College GameDay is in the Treasure Valley for the key Pac-12 game.
According to The Athletic, Oregon State is one of at least seven FBS programs that are experiencing travel issues. The other programs are Arizona State, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Washington.
Corvallis to Boise is roughly an eight-hour drive if Oregon State opts to charter buses on short notice. Central Oregon is currently under a wind advisory, which could make travel difficult.
This is a developing situation.
