re: On this day in 1983

That sucks. I hit a 7 iron into a wind like that. My ball was going backwards by the time it hit the ground about 80 yards away (my 7 iron usually goes 160).

Saban said he had the same thing happen when he was a coach at Toledo. If the wind is strong he likes to kick first if given the chance so he can choose the side of the field in the second half (he wants the wind in the 4th qtr behind his back).
