Sunday's game in question
Wildfires fanned by fierce desert winds forced the evacuations of nearly 250,000 people in San Diego County. Qualcomm Stadium, home of the Chargers and San Diego State Aztecs, is being used as an evacuation center, just as it was in 2003.
Bernie Wilson of the Associated Press writes: Four years to the week after being forced to move a Monday night game to Tempe on short notice because of deadly wildfires, the Chargers and the NFL said it was too early to know if the fires will affect this Sunday’s scheduled home game against Houston.
“We are monitoring,” NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said in an e-mail response to the AP.
SDSU is scheduled to play host to BYU on Saturday night at Qualcomm Stadium.
