Updated forecast for Thursday in Buies Creek - 100% chance of rain, high 69F

Bring your rain gear!

I wonder if they would postpone until Saturday?

Right now, it looks like the tropical storm(hurricane?) will pass through there sometime on Thursday. So, postponement until Saturday likely would resolve that issue.

I would prefer a postponement until Saturday. Driving in pouring rain and storms is probably even worse than sitting in the stands, at least with my car and particularly at night. The state of NC now calls my car a classic, but that doesn't mean its good to drive in the rain at night.

Both of the games that I had plans to attend at one point on Saturday night (WVU @ Penn State and USC vs UNC in Charlotte) have fallen through so Saturday is wide open for me. My wife has a medical procedure Thursday morning and I may not be able to sneak out Thursday afternoon as planned. Getting old sucks, but it sure beats the alternative. I am looking forward to when the "I won't live that long jokes" are actually funny again and not an actual consideration.

Go Tribe!

Campbell just announced that it's still on for Thursday

Seems stupid

Looks like rain showers at gametime from the weather channel forecast. The big storm should pass by earier in the day from what it looks like.

This is good for us. Great running game and we can mix in some passes to keep the defense off balance. Like our chances for an even bigger win.

Weather reports show that rain ends in the mid-afternoon. Breezy/windy at gametime.

Forecast now is better than that. Partly cloudy from 2-6pm and sunny by kickoff with wind around 8mph.

What hurricane?

Time to play ball! I've been waiting for this for a long time. I've never had higher expectations for a Tribe football team.

At least not at the beginning of a season. I had very high expectations near the end of 2009 and also just slightly lesser at the end of 2004….but never this high to start the year.

Heading out for Buies Creek in the morning.

Good thing I didn’t splurge on the new rain suit (yet). Looking forward to seeing a big Tribe contingent in “the Creek” tonight!

Tribe website says that Flo will stream tonight's game for FREE on Facebook, Youtube, and some other platform I don't have. Excellent! Glad I didn't splurge for Flo yet this year.

Yeah this is fantastic. I was hoping Wofford would be non-Flo as well and we could get away with almost a month without Flo. But a week is still good.

Glad to hear. Go have a great evening!

Time to give the Camels a not so warm welcome to CAA Football. It is our time to set the bar. Go Tribe!
