I wonder how HS teams in south do it - start with 95 degree, 95% humidity and end up in 30 degree, low humidity by December Championship. You don’t want to play up there, win your conference.


Nobody wants to play in shitty weather. You do because it's football, not because any sane person wants to.

Everyone is hoping for a nice day.

Since you appear to be in stats crunching mode, mind comparing the Rushing YPG and Passing YPG for Tosu and UTK against bowl eligible P4 schools?

Now look at the relative competition those stats are against. BIG defenses do not equal SEC defenses.

I think this round should be in regional domes. You have Indy and Detroit to play at in the Midwest.

St. Louis has a dome and in the SEC footprint too.

Completely disagree. I wish the first two rounds had HFA. Don't care about the weather, it's football for God sakes.

And college teams will be doing it this year.

I don't think you are following what's being said. It's not a matter of will, it's a matter of want. They will play in shitty weather because it's football, that doesn't mean anyone wants to, or that they wouldn't prefer something else.

The point being is, it was in the 30’s for 1/2 rounds in the south and they played outdoors in the weather after starting season in 95 degree weather with 95% humidity. Geez.
