80% chance of rain and thunderstorms. We will likely be under a delay! I hope that wont affect the way we call plays But should make for some interesting football.
I still have our Vols by 21. :dance2:

Hopefully not. Why would we want a sold out crowd to be delayed and then all the air is taken out.

Good thing we have a retractable roof

80% chance of Big Orange TD passes RAINING down from the sky and the THUNDERSTORMS generated in the seats of Neyland Stadium from the eruption of cheers and celebration!!!

 

[Plano Vol]

That Oregon game was miserable.....hope the crowd doesn't have to go through that again

 

[SonRise]

I am confident the sound ascending from the sacred confines of Neyland will simply repel any rain.

Finally a "It May Rain" thread I was wondering when one was coming along.

Sorry for the confusion.... ^ this is what I meant to say haha

So they are predicting heavy rain in the entire southeast USA? 4 days in advance?

Anyway, whatever weather report google displays says 0% chance of rain.

Weather.com forecasts generally suck.

Local WVLT says 60%, "on and off"...pretty typical Summer day for Tennessee.

I was at that game.It was sunny all day until about 30 minutes until kickoff and then the bottom fell out

 

[orangeluvr]

It's like your first time, hit or miss , funny that rain is.

 

[Vol865]

Why would u wanna take away our advantage of superior athletes with rain?

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

WBIR says 40% chance.

 

[BigVol90]

This just looks like East Tennessee thunderstorms. Possibly a delay if we get lightning, but it's not going to be anything like the monsoon in the Montana game. Big difference between playing on a wet field and playing in the rain. And if there's a little sunlight after the rain, the field will dry out a bit... I remember hearing all the specs on the radio about how the field could handle 12" of rain per hour and still be fine for play. I don't think it will impact our game plan at all... Nothing to worry about.

Was at that game all I remember from the game was a punt return from lamicheal James running through a big blob and all hell broke loose

 

[onevolfan]

Depending on what local Knoxville channel you watch, but WATE also says a 40% chance of rain Sunday.
