Georgia vs Alabama to play in a hurricane?

I’ve been curious about this for a while now. They seem intent on playing in what could be a tropical storm or a potential category 1 hurricane on Saturday night. Anything to protect home field advantage

Miami should offer up Yager for the game

Been there, seen it, done it. Never again! Cure Bowl vs App State. Didn’t buy the T-shirt.

I assume it has more to do with Disney than anything else. Games have been rescheduled tons of times due to weather. They could just play it in Tuscaloosa later in the season. But ratings have been down, it’s a marquee matchup in primetime, and they have Gameday lined up.

But it sets up the possibility of a southern re-creation of this.

I was at that game. All 4 seasons of weather came in 1 night. We had trouble getting our car out of the cow patty parking lot.

We’ve had hurricane games before. https://www.espn.com/college-football/recap/_/gameId/400868951

Hugo Bowl!

I was there, too. Playing conditions were ridiculous.

Eh. Only a Cat 1 isn’t it?

Ended up as a 3 and I believe dropped back to a 2 just before landfall.

My old stomping grounds. I’ve eaten in a few of those . . . .

We are in Atlanta this weekend visiting a daughter. Was supposed to be nasty weather, and we did have some high winds around midnight. But now it’s just light rain with very little wind.
