How is hurricane Harvey impacting your game this week?
Looks like another rain game for us against Vanderbilt. Will definitely impact attendance. This will most likely be the third year in a row that it will rain for that game. I know are conference brethren in Texas have much larger issues. What are the plans cancellations, postponements, or relocations?

Hasn't rained a drop where I am in northern Louisiana, but it's supposed to come right through us this week. I'm hoping it will be passed before Saturday. This game should be close to a sellout, but the weather could chase people away.

Denton is in good shape, but Lamar is located in Beaumont. They are starting to have a tough time with the rain now. Don't know if that will effect their ability to play on Saturday. Right now, the game isn't important to me. I just hope those people don't have to endure what Houston is going through.

Our Louisiana friends, My thoughts and prayers are with you as Harvey slowly makes it your way.

I don't think they have a good feel yet where the remnants of this storm is going, hopefully goes through faster or stays farther south to impact most of our games...Agreed though, will not be 10k there if even a remote chance of pouring down rain...

Ruston forecast has been sporadic but recent models has it raining several inches over next 2-3 days and moving through Friday and being nice Saturday only 20% chance of rain, which is the norm this time of year.

The news said that it'll be moving up into western Ky (Paducah, Owensboro) dropping 4-5 inches of rain. That was Sunday though. Things might have changed. I hope so.

Still storm is out in the Gulf, I think they have a good idea of area it will move but still they are unsure about the timing which could effect greatly these games on Saturday....

With respect to our friends in Texas the best part about the rain is it's kept the temps about 10 degrees cooler than normal for this time of year. Assuming the rain does move out early Saturday morning and it remains overcast the temps at game time should be perfect as it'll be around 83 degrees or so whereas it's normally mid to upper 90s with the humidity just as high

RE: How is hurricane Harvey impacting your game this week?
Tomorrow should be a key day for weather forecasts to get the predictions closer to being correct. I've seen BG go from 30% to 60% and back to 30% for Saturday night. Wont matter to me. My parking spot is 25 yards from the stadium and I chose my seat to be under the overhang just for this reason. Hard seeing the replays (with the poor video screen its hard anyways) unless you bent down...but it's 100% dry even in wind driven rains

Tough break for the birds. Hostile crowd expected and one of the most interesting G5 matchups. I was very interested in watching that game. Any word if the game will be rescheduled? By looking at both teams schedule I don't see an open date that would work.

UAB and UTSA have a common open date, but UTSA can't host that day because of the Home & Garden show at the Dome. I give it about a 20% chance of being rescheduled at this point.
