With a chance of rain this weekend..

[dhb92]

Which team do you think rain would favor? Based on our run game and mobility at the QB position I've feel like it'd help out the good guys.

Furthermore, what does that do to the checker Neyland movement? I imagine it'd throw a ton of black/discoloration into the crowd.

 

[dduncan4163]

As of now 50/50 I think.

I just hope if it does rain there won't be any lightning with it.

Late summer in beautiful East Tennessee? I wouldn't be surprised if it pours for about 20 minutes then the sun comes back out with a vengeance at some point.

From years of watching the game I believe it favors the home team regardless of style of play, as long as the crowd remains strong.

I seem to remember a game it didn't favor us.

Hush your mouth

Well this ain't against Florida with a California qb.

The mud bowl!

Judging by the fact that i saw a 0% chance of rain on Saturday as i'm being rained on, I've given up on forecasts.

I think that was a reference to the Oregon game in '10

 

[joevol33]

Hush your mouth

I didn't mention which one! Haha

That was my first guess too.

I thought he meant the home game with Casey Clausen (who I love btw however this one game was super ticked) as he had like 10 botched snaps. And Rex Grossman beat us due to that. Sickening.

Run it down their throat!

 

[allvol81]

I saw the forecast and it says high of 77 low 55 and a 40 percent chance of rain sounds like a nice fall day. It doesn't get any better then to be in Neyland with the lights on and nice cool breeze

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Accuweather says 78 and sunny?

 

[peyton4heisman]

Rain would really screw up checker Neyland

Butch has a plan for rain, lightning, snow, zombie apocalypse, etc.

Yea all those women with wet white shirts should be awful.

Ok Mr. You won't be needing those. This is an internet robbery. I'm stealing those from phone to phone. As long as they are size 10s? J/k

Those are sweet and if there is any chance of rain I'd leave those at the house. Keep those kicks sacred and clean. :rock:

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

At a neutral site, I'd say rain would favor us. However, rain would hurt the effectiveness of our home field advantage to a certain extent, I think. A lot of rain means a lot of people who'd rather watch the game at home or at a bar than in Neyland screaming their lungs out.

 

[ainge10heisman]

OU runs an Air Raid, so wet, slippery balls would obviously favor us. Rain would damper the atmosphere though. Not as much as one would think as long as it wasn't a hard, steady downpour IMO.

 

[govols105]

i hope not as the atmosphere will be dampened as well if it rains.
