Ophelia is going to make a mess of the games in the Northeast Sat.

I want to go to the UCONN/Duke game tomorrow, not a good idea now.
Tomorrow's total attendance should be about 40.

Total was 46, dropped to 45.
I'm on the under, UCONN can't score in normal weather, they ain't scoring tomorrow either.
Duke's probably going to have the "Let's just get out of this Hartford Connecticut swamp" mindset.

Is the came at Duke or UConn? Cause the link says that the storm will be in Richmond, VA at 2am on Sunday so I don't think Conn weather will be bad.

I've been burned before with these weather threads as storms have a mind of their own and have been known to die out, but this one is a rainmaker.

30 mph gusts can disrupt a kick or pass.

What was the weather like at the UCONN game? I was surprised that it didn't stop Duke from scoring 41. Also UCONN scored a meaningless TD with 21 seconds left.

12 seconds left, I don't want to talk about that.
Pouring rain now.
Duke scored a TD on a fluke scoop and score, they were gifted another TD...

The timing was off, the weather people missed it by four hours, now it's pouring rain.
I have a picture from my deck at 3:30 I can post, then the skies were battleship grey and drizzle, but like I mentioned, now it's coming down hard here.

I've never cried 'rigged' because I've cashed backdoor covers I had no business cashing too, but that was a 'hmm' moment. Duke could have run the string out with three minutes left, but kept stopping the clock... I saw it coming.

Don't get the wrong idea, I'm not bitching, but I've been getting reamed all day.
Marshall OVER 41.5, that landed on 41, I just accept it and moved on.
We remember the bad beats but forget about all the backdoor covers we cashed.

All good.
