CTV is going to have his hands full to get this team re-focused. They're probably feeling the same way we are about not hosting and how the "facilities" and weather are.

How stupid are the officials in Hattiesburg? They’ve been meeting for 35 minutes and there is still no decision. You have all of the info in front of you. Make a decision.

they are probably in the rule book to see how to call this a complete game and move on

All they have have to do is look outside and then at a radar. There’s lighting popping off everywhere and now it’s a downpour. Just call it and stop leaving people in limbo, we know it’s not getting played.

We won’t be playing tonight. Weather is only getting worse and still looks several hours away from being over

There's a reason the University of Tennessee is in the Eastern time zone. And it's not just cause central sucks.

Actually if we do idealized time zones based on degrees from Greenwich with no adjustments for political boundaries, I think the boundary between Eastern and Central would be 90 degrees West longitude, putting Knoxville squarely in Central Time

Did this never materialize? I don't see how they don't have any contingency plans for this. I'd assume when planning to host an event like this you'd plan for just this scenario in terms of timetables/communication/etc.

If the game gets pushed to tomorrow, do they also play game 2 tomorrow as well.

I would guess almost certainly, although I can’t imagine either team being thrilled with the idea of playing an elimination game an hour after completing Game 1, especially with the fact it will be another game faced with constant delays due to bad weather tomorrow as well.

Usm has been acting sketchily all week. I figured there would be shenanigans when they announced they weren't selling tickets to the public despite increasing capacity.

Hope all the lads see the taunting

I always thought it would’ve made more sense to shift the ET/CT border westward to put metro Nashville, Alabama, and all of Florida on ET. It takes a sharp east/west bend through Kentucky which just looks weird

That just doesn’t match up well with solar time though. Almost all of Tennessee should fall in GMT-6 CST based on sidereal time. Nashville at GMT-5 EST would have terribly late sunsets and depressingly late sunrises

I highly doubt if the weather keeps acting like this all weekend that they can’t change the rules. The NCAA makes the rules so nothing is stopping them from tweaking them for exceptional circumstances.

They need all teams in Omaha by Thursday at the latest, preferably by Wednesday. I can’t stop thinking we’re gonna get screwed by this rule
