While college football is definitely one of the lowest priorities in Houston at the moment, the game originally scheduled at NRG has now been moved to the Superdome. This probably gives LSU a home field advantage but there weren't really any other options. Kickoff was also pushed back to 9:30 pm, so if FSU-Bama gets out of hand at least there will be a backup.
Thoughts/prayers to any Buckeye fans in the area. The flooding looks downright biblical on the news.
