Saturday weather

[LWN_Pheonix]

What game final do you think will be affected the most by the weather

40 degrees 20MPH winds

 

[ODirty1]

We play at the warmest point of the day.... yay 28⁰

 

[FanFan_65]

I hope it’s 40 degrees but the temps I’m seeing are significantly lower, especially for the late 8A game at 25 degrees.

 

[ClownBaby]

Hurts Geneva the most they have a great passing attack and are outsized at the LOS.

 

[LWN_Pheonix]

I think that I am leaning more towards Joliet Catholic with the weather being a factor

Everyone always talks weather but when was the last year and teams won or lost based on weather?

The one that still reverberates in ESL vs Richards 6 to 7 game wind chill of 0⁰ yardage 347 to 0 punter so cold he kicked ball into the back of the long snapper on the 4.... grrrrrrrr

I still believe that may the fewest yards gained by a winning team in the playoffs.

Naz Mt. Carmel 2019

That’s the game I thought of too. Not sure the weather was the reason MC won, but it definitely affected Naz on the offensive side more so than MC.

This is the correct answer. I didn’t want to say it because it sounds like sour grapes. I don’t think MtC won because of the weather, that was a very good team who played very well and deserved to win. However what should have been a good game was not, Naz had no chance because of the weather.

 

[Jiggs]

I agree with both Caravan and Irish. It was the one game I remember where McCarthy was ineffective. The reason being the weather.

 

[caravan8]

I actually thought the weather had a worse effect on the offensive line, which led to the problems for JJ that game. Odeluga was in his face all game and it seemed like the O line just couldn’t keep JJ clean.

Gotta be

Naz Mt. Carmel 2019

Remember the broadcast of that game? The fact that a mid major TV station (for lack of a better word) couldn't take precautions to keep the camera lenses clear was awful.

 

[greatgig13]

It’ll be 2 degrees warmer in Normal than DeKalb. Worth the drive outside of the population center.

 

[LWN_Pheonix]

They had 2 cameras that brought their rain visors

It didn’t stop them from keeping the foggy camera as the main go to even though you couldn’t see anything

 

[Doctor_D]

I just took the dogs on a quick walk. It is brisk out there at the moment. Big difference in weather (at least temperature) this week compared to the previous 13.

I think Lena’s #43 does beat Althoff’s #43 in a race
