"We hope everyone understands we try to avoid changing home game dates, but this decision was made with the best interest of our program in mind," A-State Director of Athletics Terry Mohajir said. "We apologize to our fans for any inconvenience this change may have caused."

Additionally, the Red Wolves' game vs. Texas State at Bobcat Stadium will now be played Thursday, Nov. 20, rather than Nov. 22.
