MU game weather


Recommended Posts


I HIGHLY doubt that conditions will be so bad that the game can't be played. Unless there is a danger of lightning, but in those cases the officials usually just delay play until the lightning has subsided.Here is the rule for suspended play as outlined by NCAA guidelines.

 

When the game is stopped by actions of a person(s) not subject to the

rules or for any other reasons not in the rules and cannot continue, the

referee shall:

1. Suspend play and direct the players to their team areas.

2. Refer the problem to those responsible for the game’s management.

3. Resume the game when he determines conditions are satisfactory.

c. If a game is suspended under Rules 3-3-3-a and b before the end of the

fourth period and cannot be resumed, conference policy shall determine

whether the game will be resumed at a later date, terminated or forfeited

(and the final score). If no conference policy is applicable to both

teams, the directors of athletics at the participating institutions or their

designees, in consultation with the coaches, shall determine whether the

game will be resumed at a later date, terminated or forfeited (and the

final score if the game is terminated) (Rule 8-1-2).

d. If a game is suspended under Rules 3-3-3-a and b after four periods of

play and cannot be resumed, the game shall be ruled a tie. The final

score shall be the score at the end of the last completed period. (Note: If

a winner must be determined in a conference playoff game, conference

policy shall determine when and where the game will be resumed.)

e. A suspended game, if resumed, will begin with the same time remaining

and under the identical conditions of down, distance, field position and

player eligibility.

f. The referee’s discretionary timeout also applies to the following

situations:

1. When there is undue delay by officials in placing the ball for the next

snap (A.R. 3-3-3-I).

2. When there is a consultation with team captains.

3. When conditions warrant temporary suspension.

 

What the Big 12 rule is? I don't know, and this is as much research as I'm going to put into it right now. But historically, refs are very unlikely to stop or suspend a game unless absolutely necessary.

This happened for the Auburn-WVU game earlier this year. They just started the game later is all.

im not concerned about the condition of the field, but rather fumbles and incompletions with a wet ball out there.

 

Everyone bring your rain gear, lol.

 

and when you come back to nebraska, bring your winter coats, we might be seeing some snow up here, lol.

Rain typically favors the running game and slows the passing game.

 

If Nebraska is able to stack the box against the run and let the weather take care of the passing game, I doubt Missouri scores 10 points.

 

mizzou has had some great passing days in rain. Rain doesnt bother me as much as wind.

Bowling Green?
