NWS predicts 70% chance of rain after about 4 PM for tomorrow's game . At night chance is 90% so for original start time weather may have been worse

Any indication of whether sprinkles or downpour is more likely?

If the latter maybe we can substitute in swimming backs for the running backs.

Rain is really good for us. Will let the defense do their thing and we can grind the ball with our line.

Actually, I think the Cats are the better team; rain adds a degree of randomness (fumbles,bad footing) that I would prefer not to have. I really wish the game was being played in dry conditions with minimal wind.

While I agree, I think the Cats usually do okay in the rain. As I recall, the rain didn't hurt our second half comeback against Utah in the Holiday Bowl.

That’s a fair take and I agree. I think we win either way, in my mind I just see a beat down in the rain with defenders flying all over the field.
