Possible weather issues looming for Thursday.

[State82]

Anybody heard any scoop on contingency plans if Thursday night washes out? Wonder if we double up Saturday or go to Sunday? NWS is already putting a 70% chance of rain for Thursday night. Also, low Friday night of 39. Looks like we are reverting back to early season baseball weather.

I wanna say the series has to end Saturday and can't carry over to Sunday.

Pretty sure you're right. Stupid SEC rule.

Auburn is really the only below average team we have on our SEC schedule. The schedule gods didn't feel it was necessary for us to play Georgia, Missouri, or Tennessee. It figures this will be the weekend we have weather issues.

Any idea why the series was scheduled for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday instead of the usual Friday, Saturday, and Sunday?

For the Thurs. night ESPNU tv package.

Somebody plays every Thurs. night in conference.

Could they move starting time to noon and show the tape-delay Thursday night ? That`s better than a rain out for ESPN and us too.

 

[RocketDawg]

OK, thanks. The weather does indeed look like it will be a problem. Possible severe storms ... again.

My guess if it gets rained out. We play Friday night then a double header on Saturday game 1 at 4 then game 2 after. Maybe they will move football up an hour then do baseball at 3.

Double up saturday but it's now 20 chance of rain Thursday so looks like no need to worry according to the weather channel.
