cheekygeek Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 WIND FORECAST The model expected 11 kts (12.6 mph) winds (not gusts). Here are the most recently observed wind conditions at the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport (not far from the stadium, but west of the river). The G number is for highest wind Gust recorded. The highest gust of the day, so far (36 mph) was recorded most recently - just before 4 PM. Looking at the short term weather model (forecast), it looks like kickoff time is expected to be 8-9 kts (9-10 mph). Interestingly, however, if the forecast verifies, it appears that the winds will decrease a bit after kickoff. 6 kts (7 mph) is forecast by 8 PM and should remain around there until the end of the game. Wind remains out of the SSE/SE for the duration of the game. Higher gusts are, of course, possible. If the forecast trend is accurate, the passing game may be more of an option after the first quarter. It seems to be a far cry from what the models were predicting a few days ago (25 mph winds out of the south). Quote Link to comment

deedsker Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 The fact that the temperature at kickoff opening weekend is 78 degrees means this is going to be one of the least adverse weather during an opening game for Nebraska in a long time. Thanks for hosting us south Canada! 3 Quote Link to comment

Over/Under on game time where a single player is both praised and slandered in this thread? From which side of the ball or position group? First kickoff of the game Someone gets down the field extremely fast for the tackle but does not hit hard enough for a member’s liking… Quote Link to comment

I think Rhule will play this game as close to the vest as long as possible. Rhule may open things up if behind by 2 scores in the 2nd half, but I think Rhule is just trying to get the 4th quarter within 1 score, and see what happens in the 4th. There will probably be mistakes by the players, but I don't think there will be glaring coaching decisions which will make us scratch our head. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
