re: How many times has southern heat and humidity been a major factor

I don't think it's that big of a deal. Hydration is a major part of every program now.

Now, can it tire out a player who isn't used to it? Sure. But the good players will typically play well despite the weather. Utah has a bunch of them

The biggest problem will be the fact that Utah players are going to be inefficient in terms of sweating. They are used to dry climates where sweating is extremely efficient.

Florida will struggle some with altitude when they go to SLC.

It is what it is. You do the best you can to cool and hydrate. Florida will need to bring oxygen to SLC if they are smart.

The fourth quarter will tell the tale.

Oh and for games that effected non southern teams. 1982 USC @ Florida and 1983 UCLA @ Georgia.
