Now they're wanting to play a game at BDS as a hurricane moves through. Make it make sense, yo

Seminoles have spears, which are well known and documented lightning rods. The delay was for the safety of our guests.

“A lightning strike 15 miles and moving away from BDS delayed a game a few weeks ago”

And if there is a lightning strike again, per SEC protocol, the game will be delayed again so what’s your point? Here, I’ll make it make sense. You don’t want the game played in Tuscaloosa. That’s what you’re really saying.

It's not a hurricane by the time it gets there, and by the time the game starts it will be gone and if it's raining it will be light and gone by the time the game is over.

Weather might not even be a factor.

But as far as game day goes, they could maybe double cast with the weather channel because it'll be hitting during that.

According to the most recent forecast anyway, which has been pretty consistent for the past few days.

I will make it make sense to you....

You are a panic stricken coward

The chance of rain will sub 25% during the entire game.

The bad weather will have cleared out to the north and east of Tuscaloosa before kickoff time. At most, they might catch a passing shower during the actual game. The timing of the storm is only really going to screw up tailgating.

Quit being so quick to panic and want to reschedule or move the game. Do you not remember the bullshite that Florida's AD pulled with that hurricane about 10 years ago forcing them to reschedule the LSU game when the weather ended up being perfectly fine to play in Gainesville?

The forecast is horrific. It’s literally a tropical storm almost directly over Tuscaloosa at 1pm

Bama fans should be absolutely pissed about this. They are fricking over your entire area and fanbase with this

People that say “at game time the weather will be great” are people you don’t ever want running anything

Not taking into account the massive power outages, roads, and downed trees in the area

“Only a tropical storm” is the dumbest shite I have heard.

Tropical storms aren't that bad.
