The college football matchup between Washington and Michigan State has been delayed due to a nationwide Federal Aviation Administration ground stop that disrupted travel for the Huskies.
The game, which was originally scheduled for 4:15 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 14, will now begin at 5:30 p.m. at Spartan Stadium, according to reports from Yahoo Sports.
Washington players were at the airport preparing for departure to East Lansing when the FAA issued the order, forcing the team to return to campus, as noted by The Detroit News.
The team later provided an update regarding their travel status on social media.
Michigan State enters the game with a 3-6 record following a 15-6 victory over Michigan, a win that returned the Paul Bunyan Trophy to East Lansing, per reporting by the Big Ten Network.
Washington holds a 5-4 record and is coming off a 28-25 loss to Penn State.
The Huskies currently lead the series 4-1 and enter the contest as 3.5-point favorites, as stated in the Yahoo Sports coverage.
This marks the first meeting between the two programs since Washington joined the Big Ten conference.
The broadcast will be handled by Chris Vosters, with Rhett Lewis serving as the analyst and Caroline Hendershot reporting from the sidelines.
Local radio coverage will be provided by WJR 760 AM in Detroit and the Spartan Media Network, with George Blaha, Jehuu Caulcrick, and Tre Mosley on the call.
Athletic department officials from Michigan State confirmed they remained in contact with both Washington and the Big Ten office while monitoring the situation throughout the day.
The teams previously split their two meetings at Spartan Stadium.
