It is colder than a well-digger's ass up there around Thanksgiving, in my experience. (My folks live in Wayne)
90% chance of a nice downpour, too.

It was a high of 54 last year. It was a high of 57 in Greenville.
If you look at that Saturday, and assume a noon kickoff, it's 54 versus 45.

I'm willing to bet the conference is going to leave the War on I-4 on that weekend for the foreseeable future...

Maybe I'm to drunk to see the joke but they know that's not going to happen right?
Tried and true thanksgiving weekend plans. Thanksgiving with family, drink a ton of bourbon. Wake up on black friday, Bloody Mary in the morning, drive to Tampa, watch the game, shots & drinks until it's time for the casino, hard rock, mons venus, blackout.
Is a bloody Mary actually good for a hangover? I interned with a kid from Tennessee a year ago and he said they were. Hadn't even thought about the drink until seeing you say your routine is to drink one the morning after drinking a bunch of bourbon... Which makes me inclined to believe he was right lol. Had to ask
"When it comes to hangover treatments, the bloody mary is basically a combination of the hair of the dog–type cure, and the exotic vegetable juice-type cure. It’s got tomato juice and horseradish and vodka, so it must be restorative. But the bloody mary brings another factor into play: hot sauce. Spicy things are supposed to be good for hangovers because they make you sweat, ridding your body of the toxins you went to such lengths to put into it the night before, and also because they make you want to drink water. And since I’m a person who likes bloody marys, it sounds good. Just add an extra dozen shakes of Tabasco, or a good squirt of Sriracha, and get ready to burn that hangover away."

Missed this, but usually "hard rock" is AFTER Mons Venus, not before...

True, but I also feel like ECU could have an easy win against Norfolk. I'd consider that progress.

The UConn dead weight is gone, but it makes winning harder in the tough AAC. The difference between winning and losing is narrow among the projected best teams.

Temple plays Navy this year instead of UConn. Yeah, there’s a little bit tougher schedule.
