The Georgia/Boise State game from 2005 comes to mind. Jared Zabransky had some combination anxiety attack/heat emergency and spent the second half on a table in the locker room getting IVs.

It works both ways.
Going to SoCal or Colorado (low humidity environments), it is much easier to get dehydrated because you don't sweat as much and do not realize that moisture is still leaving your body.
In either case, if you aren't "properly" hydrated before the game, you're going to have problems. Properly meaning proper hydration days before the game, not between warmups and kickoffs.

Even Midwest teams practice through a very hot summer. As a UK fan I'd like to have Florida at home in November some years. It wouldn't have mattered most of my lifetime but when we are within a couple of touchdowns difference in talent it could be enough to sway a couple of games.
