I misread the title and thought it was coldest stadiums (games). I’d like to see what the coldest games are. I’m sure Kentucky, Arkansas and Missouri have had some cold games.

I know Iron Bowl in 2000 was played in Sleet in Tuscaloosa. That’s the coldest game I remember Auburn playing in.

When did it hit -16 in Louisiana? We can’t drive here when it’s below 40, I can only imagine what the roads looked like that day

My guess is that must be North of Alexandria, likely near Monroe or Shreveport between those 2 cities and LA/Arkansas state line.

Texas is huge. The area where the lowest low is nowhere near College Station. CS is actually closer to the Florida/Alabama border than it is El Paso. A quick google search says -3 is the lowest in Aggieland.

The high where I am is -6 today but it’s a “dry cold” so it’s really not that bad. Any of those negative temperatures in the humid wet cold would be extremely miserable.

We’ve had some cold games, but not as cold as you’d think. It typically isn’t that cold in mid-Missouri until mid/late December.

That was my thought too, I'm sure that coldest temp is somewhere up in the panhandle, and was curious what the coldest all time would look like for central Texas. I figured last year's snowmaggedon when it got into the low single digits would be pretty close, sounds like it if you found -3 for B/CS.

No to all of that. Christmas is great in the 40s IMO.

Glad you qualified by saying SEC states instead of Southern States.
