Big Ten and SEC games indoors but the ACC playing in Charlotte! It's forecast is rainy and mid-upper 30's.

Yes Yes if you're from New England or Chicago that isn't 'cold' but anyone who knows Carolina down 30's knows its pretty penetrating cold as a wet cold. How is this going to effect Winston to Benjamin and so forth? Can the Sunshine state boys play well in the frigid temps? As a Tampa fan I've lived through all of the 'sub 43 degree' losses when we were a contender and so forth and the history of Florida teams in the cold are not exciting.

I'm taking the Dukies tonight based on this additional factor as well as home state game....underdog mentality and well....I really want Fl State to take a dump on the field to assist Bama in getting back in the title game to be honest

Yeah I thought it was a 70% chance of rain, so took the under 63. Now its up to 65 Dammit!

As far as the probability of Duke winning, about the same % as Auburn scoring 2 TD's in the last 32 seconds against BAMA. You just never know!

Yeah never know whats in store in these late season games. Trust me I've had nightmares about Michigan not finishing off Ohio St last week....the Georgia/Auburn miracle catch plus the Iron Bowl and so forth. Crazy how one play here or there reshapes the entire picture. Bring on the playoffs damnitt

I'm settled in for the Bedlam game now and can't wait for the full days of football.

[Noles1992]

Well I am with ya, Just glad we are back to being a probable top 4 for a while. So playoffs will be fun!

With the craziness of this season. If Duke were to win along with Ohiost, the matchup of FSU/BAMA everyone wanted to see could happen in the sugar. Not the NCG Go figure. GL ON YOUR PLAYS TODAY!

Only wager for me today is a 3 Unit play on Auburn....figure they at least need to repay me for the cost of alcohol I ingested to numb the pain this week so they better win today

How accurate are these forecasts?

Half the time weather seems ok at kickoff

[Noles1992]

@ Pickle Thats Funny!

[InTheDrink]

fyi weather favors the offense as long as the qb can throw the ball

[SilverTongueFox]

Weather should be fine. Rain not suppose to roll in until after midnight.

Even if it's not a downpour just the air is miserable and moist this weekend though. Talked with guys in Raleigh last night and they said it was pretty messy out. We'll see. If it starts a cold mist there will definitely effect plays...does anyone know if Winston can throw with a glove?

Depends...sure the route tree and knowledge of the play benefits the receiver as far as initial cuts/moves but I'm thinking about the QB's hands.....gonna be either painful or throw with a glove which is gonna be tricky if he's not familiar with it.

[cant call it]

under is 66.5 now

[BetsandBeer]

took the u66.5

fsu will want to get out of there injury free. winston -10000 to win the heisman right now

FSU 42-17

Not sure, but they did practice with a wet ball all week. The High velocity he throws with on his passes, and with a wet ball might be tougher on the receivers. Only a 20% chance now of rain anyways. I am prepared to take the loss on my under 63.

[itchypickle]

Just grabbed a snap from a traffic cam on Belk (277 that runs past the stadium) looks overcast now. Lots of grey clouds so while the temps might be around 50 now...will drop fast when sun goes down around 630 local time and gonna feel pretty damned cold.

[Noles1992]

There are as many people on the road there, as there is at the SMU/UCF game I am watching

Piss poor planning = Piss poor results right? Gotta cover all the bases

[pavyracer]

It's the same weather here in Atlanta. Only 3 hrs away. Perfect football weather. Both teams are accustomed to it.

Some guys give misinformation

I would take 500 points from them

Let m ask management

[Noles1992]

@ JJ .Nobody gave misinformation in this thread. It called for cold and rain all week, thats why FSU used wet balls at practice all week. Now the rain might not come til later in the game, if at all.

take 2500 from yourself or whichever shift JJ gives misinformation about Brock being the next Danny Sheridan then....business as usual

[BetsandBeer]

[BetsandBeer]
