Showing 55% chance Saturday.
We aren’t known for our running backs.
Which team benefits?

My gardenias need some rain. I stopped watering them this summer because I wanted them to die, and replace them. Funny thing- they actually got healthier and attractive when I stopped taking care of them.

They still have blooms in November.

Regarding the low temps, I'm fine with whatever sends the Joro Spiders to hell.

For the game, it will be cold and wet. Hopefully the crowd can stay in it. I have no question about our players being ready to go. Ole Miss averages 200 less yards and 20 points lower on road games vs home games this season, so it is very important that we, the fans, play our part and make it a very loud unpleasant environment for Ole Miss, despite the conditions. And it has to be for 4 quarters.

I will also add, anyone that isn't prepared for a 4 hour rainy cold football game isn't prepared for what's about to happen in civilization.

Rain coat.
Rain pants.
Gloves.
Waterproof shoes/boots.
Cotton long-johns or what fancy people call "thermal underwear".

It's not a 7 day hunting excursion in Alaska. It's 4 hours in winter elements. Everyone should be able to pull this off.

I'd rather it be cold and rainy than 114 degrees and humid in full sun.

Going with a day of drizzle. Put the tailgate tents to use. Help make the ground not so damn dusty.


Just roughed in driveway. Like a damn beach right now.

I was expecting some high and low pressure analysis based on the radars. Thought you were into that shite.

Mine do too. I didn’t think they were going to make it this year bc that cold spell at Christmas really knocked the shite out of them. Pain in the arse to take care of. My whole landscape was battered and late blooming bc of it.

If we lose at home at night this year to OlE Miss, I would be very surprised. These tickets are crazy expensive. Night game. Sanford is going to be nuts. Kirby isn’t this guy, but I want to see a blackout again. Perfect opportunity.

Hopefully the crowd responds like they did for Tennessee last year.

It was pleasant all day tailgating and for over half the game before it started raining in the 2nd half. While I hope this isn't the case, my GUESS is that if it's cold/rainy all day while tailgating and raining off and on thorughout the game, it's gonna put a damper on teh crowd.

That's what I'm thinking. We are going regardless. Will ponchos be enough or should go out and get the frog tog rain suits?

Latest info looks liek it'll be cold all day with scattered showers prertty consistent all day and through the game.

I've never been a poncho guy myself. I think for htis one I'll probably just layer as warmly as possible then put a rain jacket on over. Will probably bring gloves and cold weahter hat as well, I really hate cold. Despise it.

The literal definition of a fair weather fan. Good for the die hards who can now afford to get in.

Shut up.

I have six tickets for Sat. Haven’t missed a home game in years.

Half the folks on here don’t even go to the games/

Was just noting a fact.
