NCAA week 13 weather

[inZane]

I'm seeing a lot of games from the Mississippi River east that will be having some wet weather this weekend. I'm going through the list now and making some notes.

Any local updates or observations will be appreciated.

Alright, here's a list of games that according to the forecast today, and looking at the forecast for each school individually, could be affected by rain:

Maryland, Kent St., Indiana, Georgia, Georgia St., Wake, Cincy, Appy St., Charlotte, West Virginia, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Navy, UAB, Middle Tenn., and ULM...

Local forecasts around here are all calling for an ugly, cold and wet day in Boone with stready cold rain throughout eventually changing to flurries once the sun goes down. Game is at 2:30pm so most likely will just be played in wet conditions throughout.

Rain forecast for Columbus, goes from 40% to 90% around kickoff. No idea how hard right now.

I'll give you a 9AM report on Saturday before I go tailgate.

I know rain impacts teams differently but can someone give their take on passing versus running? Total points. My take is more tunrovers which can kill drives late or start them with short fields. Likely helps the underdog? Thoughts?

Terrific, thank you.

Sunny and 40. 80% chance of rain beginning at 2. Second half should be wet.

Looks like the rain will miss Yuleman for Tulane

I think it very tough to say, but a hard/steady cold rain I think generally hurts passing so I tend to look to the team better rushing and stopping the run. Illini/Purdue was a great example few weeks back (although tad more extreme than some), once I saw the cold rain in forecast was accurate it made Illini a no brainer as rushing their strength and Purdue terrible at it. Don’t get many easier sizable dogs than that one.

Anyone know if the moderate steady rain for at least whole 1st half at Blacksburg still accurate?

Been raining all morning in Montgomery. AL. Distance is divided between Tuscaloosa and Auburn. Not a wind to speak of, but steady big drops.

Been raining heavy all morning here in Charlotte and everything is completely saturated. Don't have a feel for the 49ers game vs Marshall, but something to consider if anyone is thinking about playing that one.
