Do you think it will affect our offensive game plan if it rains early? I see a lot more ground pounding and more bubble screens and draws. We may also get to see how well our defense can truly defend the run.

Not a big fan or rain for the game ... makes me think it will be closer than it should see as how we haven't shown anything in the run game.

Run game you say? Shouldnt be a problem for our O line with 8 in the box.

Very confident in our defenses' run-stopping ability.

Especially when the O Line across from them is the caliber of Arkansas'. Offensively I'm not sure what to expect though. I was thinking it might be somewhat of a shootout but I'm not so sure anymore.

At the risk of sounding overconfident, I really think the rain tilts the game even more in A&M's favor. As long as it's not too windy, I don't think the rain will affect our passing game because JFF doesn't tend to force too many throws. Rainy conditions favor mobile QBs, and we all know our QB is dangerous already from that standpoint. We'll test their D-line--if Cmike, Malena, and TDubs can replicate even half of what our run game did to them last year, it will be a LONG afternoon for arky.
I think A&M will put up a ton of points--I'm thinking we go over 50 again this week. I just don't think arky can keep up if they wanted to.

NWS says 70%. Still a high percentage for this far out, and it may increase closer to Saturday.
Everyone wear clothes you won't mind getting soaked in.

In our section we are jammed in so tight that a simple hat may keep you pretty dry.

As long as my roof doesn't start leaking, I'll be dry. ;)

I don't.
This offense didn't seem to mind the rain in this game. It was dumping buckets in Houston that night.

I'll be liquored real good for this monsoon. Tailgate starts 6-630 and I am drinking straight Makers. Packing an extra flask for gametime.

My seats are under the overhang on the first deck. Like a bawse.

I envy you. Don't mind the cloud cover this weekend as we would have been in the sun the entire game. For a 2:30 game we are in the sun until almost 4pm.

I am feeling nostalgic about the site of grown men in pig hats. Hard to believe it's been 20+ years since they've been to Kyle Field.

I'll be drinking Elijah Craig and will also have a keg at the tailgate. Not enough time to drink it all before the game, but afterwards, I'll probably be soaked from the rain and victory drinking or drinking to drown my sorrows.

think it was raining the last time they visited as well iirc. Night game and they came out in a surprise wishbone and passed like twice the whole game
