2024 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

There’s no way they coulda played tonight with explosives found in the area, they are going to have to completely sweep the whole area as precaution.
there's a difference between fear and a healthy level of caution.... this is a healthy level of caution....fear would be canceling or moving the game outta the city

Yeah, I wasn't replying about moving the game, I was responding to the whole "we can't have events yada yada" that was spewed. I haven't been following the story, so I wasn't aware of the explosives, but I'm all for ensuring the safety of the event, and realize that will take time, so pushing 24 hours makes sense.

Explosives were found in the area? Haven't heard that. What was found? Everything else about this screams a lone-wolf kind of nut-job kind of attack. Just curious.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation identified him as 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a U.S. citizen from Texas. Investigators said they found the flag, weapons and a potential explosive device inside the rented Ford pickup and were working to learn more about the driver’s potential ties to terrorist organizations. The bureau said it was running down leads to identify any possible associates of Jabbar.


A social-media account associated with Jabbar describes him as a veteran. U.S. Army officials are trying to determine whether he served either in active duty, Army National Guard or reserves, a defense official said.


Law-enforcement and intelligence officials have been warning for months that conflict in the Middle East could inspire lone-wolf terrorists or small groups of extremists to carry out attacks in the U.S.
