MONTGOMERY, Ala. — The FCS Kickoff sport between UC Davis and Mercer was declared a no contest after a climate delay of about 1 1/2 hours Saturday night time.
UC Davis, ranked No. 7 within the FCS coaches ballot, had a 23-17 lead over No. 11 Mercer when play was stopped with about 7 1/2 minutes left.
“Tonight’s eleventh Annual FCS Kickoff has been declared a ‘No Contest’ as a consequence of rain and intermittent lightning that has continued to maneuver by means of central Alabama,” Mercer stated on social media. “All statistics from tonight’s sport have been voided.”
UC Davis posted: “Mom Nature wins the day as tonight’s sport in Montgomery has been known as a no contest.”
