    Lightning delay in the Georgia @ Carolina game....any changes?

    Rainy, lightning...delayed will take energy out of that crowd. Game might be on and off til night time....who does this favor?

    This thing could last all night.

    if there's multiple delays the fans will thin out

    what's the rules on cancelling a game or ending it early? I know the Alabama game was ended early due to thunder last week I believe, I know it was a blowout but not sure if they would possibly do the same?

    If you need to have a half hour break every single time lightning strikes within an 8 mile radius around the stadium, there is no way they are going to get this game in.

    A game of this magnitude won't be cancelled but it certainly might be postponed, maybe to tomorrow, maybe to later in the season.

    I imagine the refs are in consultation with the Conference Commissioner.

    Fans will be more rowdy if this ends up playing. No fans are leaving this game, no way

    Most Carolina fans can't go 3 straight hours without drinking or posting something annoying on a message board. 5:00 kickoff already going to test their limits

    Need time to get home. Just not an ideal situation since government has to budget for these games. They're going to try everything in their power to get this one in.

    Got a text from someone at the game. Delays are for lightning, it's hardly rained

    Obviously ploy to slow down might Georgia. I'm wavering in how this one goes. Probably only 40-3 Georgia now as Spurrier has obviously struck deal with Mother Nature
