Will cold weather Saturday night bother our offense?

Columbia, SC 10-Day Weather Forecast - The Weather Channel | Weather.com

Wonder if our receivers will wear gloves?
Long sleeves?

Pathetic attempt at fishing for likes

 

[volfan2491]

No we will be fine. Vols by 4 touchdowns!

more than that my friend

 

[Jeff Clark]

In a word.......................................................NO

 

[youre no daisy]

would say gloves are a safe bet since most rec wear them even when its not cold!!!!!!!!!!!!

Somewhere between 40-50 degrees after players get warmed up won’t be cold to them. In fact, they’ll probably love it.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

It’s going to be a high of 59 and low of 38. 5% chance of rain. We’ll be fine

Cold weather will not bother us as much as it does their defense. Weather works both ways and is not just one side of the ball or the other...
Our Offense will bother their Defense more than the weather.

 

[youre no daisy]

even at below 0 temps offense would be fine 90 seconds away from the heater is not enough time to get cold

 

[GAVol]

Maybe some.
But Mizzou Was a day game. Not that cold.

The game is in Columbia, SC; not Antarctica.

There has been a thread wondering if the weather (usually rain), will slow down our offense each week for the past month now. Has this become a pre-game VN ritual?

We did start slow last game until our juices got going in second half so could be a thing early on. Also dont forget the "Hooker can't play in cold" thing from past

Panicked Vol Syndrome. Usually happens after getting over Battered Vol Syndrome.

Which precedes Pessimistic Vol Syndrome.

The current weather forecast calls for 37 degrees Sat night.

Are you worried they’re all going to curl up in a fetal position and cover up in blankets? They will be fine. The other team has to play in it too.
You are all whining like a bunch of sissy snowflakes. We are going to win by fifty.

Cancel the game, people will die

 

[90 Vol]

Nope! Vols by fiddy.

 

[TennVols12]

At 4 or 5 am yes. Not between 7 and 11 pm.

That's the daily low temperature. Which almost always comes just before dawn.

Come on, man, you know how daily temperature variations work. Highest temp of the day (expected 59 or 60 degrees on Saturday) comes around 3 pm, then gently drops all evening and through the night until some time before dawn, the daily low comes.

Game time, 7 pm, is much closer to the 3pm high temp than it is to the 4-5 am low temp. So the temperature at game time will correspondingly be much closer to the 60 degree high than to the 37 degree low. Somewhere in the 40s or low 50s.

Brother, this ain't rocket surgery.

You beat me to it

 

[TennVols12]

Nope! Vols by fiddy.

Atleast.

 

[sami]

Low 40's with no rain? Sounds like perfect football weather to me.

I just spit out my coffee……

 

[vol94]

I love Volnation but man, there are some harsh responses. Can’t we all get along?

 

[OrangeTsar]

Let me help you, Vfl. Our boys are football players. Honest to goodness football players. They are not shawl wrapped wimps, whimpering for their mommies to hug them on account of being a bit chilly. Before the age of pampering, football was football. Our boys don't ask to be pampered, but maybe pampered fans wish they did. Orange you glad I clarified this?

But I DO expect us to make every effort to Keep Smokey comfortable (he does travel to away games doesn’t he)?

 

[OrangeTsar]

Cancel the game, people will die

We shall survive coastal South Carolina SOMEHOW

I knew UGA did. Didn’t know about Smokey
