SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The annual Causeway Classic football game between Sacramento State and UC Davis is being relocated because of air quality concerns.
The game, which was supposed to be played at UC Davis' Aggie Stadium, is being moved to the University of Nevada-Reno's Mackay Stadium to "prioritize the health and safety of student-athletes from both schools."
It will be announced later this morning that Saturday’s 66th Causeway Classic between Sac State & UC Davis will relocate to Univ. of Nevada-Reno’s Mackay Stadium because of the terrible air quality caused by the #CampFire in the Sacramento region. Kickoff at noon.
