How long is the delay?

However long it takes,… it didn’t look like a huge pocket though so prob like 20 minutes

I was an AD before I became a principal. Lightning delays are literally my nightmare. And that was only on a JH/HS level.

I give us the edge for this pause. Coaches should use the time wisely.

 

[MacIrish75]

Typically can resume 30 mins after last strike in the area.

And you restart that sonofabitch every time there’s a visible strike or sound of thunder.

Did you see those hillbillies shitting on our players as they went to the locker room? Kid looked like Joe Dirt.

That kid with the mullet was intense. He got quite a few looks from our boys. Should have put a mic on him. Yikes.

I'm scoring this delay as another mark against Independence!

If anything, the crowd will be taken out of the game to some degree. Would prefer the delay than ND ball in the rain.

We will find out what we have coaching staff wise today,… for sure

Great.

nothing happens if his momentum carried him into the end zone. The ball would be dead and ND would get it where he picked it.

are you sure? Even if he slips and slides in from the 1?

I’ve been at HS games that start at 7PM and end at 1AM. It’s misery for all involved.

 

[IrishBoognish]

Geez. ND clearly had the MO There. That really sucks.

There is always the athletic trainer doing anything possible to find lightning within a 50 mile radius

I thought it was more he was trying to stop his momentum from carrying through the end zone

I say our people on the ground invite all the students to their tailgates, feed them a few rounds of shots and have them passed out around suburban Raleigh. Don’t let them make it back into the stadium.

Please expand upon this link?

Yes

Their defense came out really energetic and hyped up,… this break can only hurt their energy and mental aspects. If our boys go down the field and score here then it could be a quick down slide for them

 

[Luckylucci]

On offense they need to let Hartman control more of the game. Spread em out, give him some short/intermediate options on all plays, and then him spread it around. Use the pass game to loosen up the run game.

IMO, heavy rain gets crowds amped. Especially underdogs. The "we DGAF" mad dog comes out.

 

[MacIrish75]

Keep feeding JD on offense. His running style is better suited right now as opposed to Estime’s.

I would agree *if* they wouldn’t have cleared the stadium.

 

[IrishBoognish]

Man... I set my alarm for 8:15am on a got dang Saturday. God hates me.

Yep, I bet a quarter of the student section is off to the bar or frat house

 

[IrishFanForever23]

Is it me or are these running plays for Estime slow developing ones. Maybe I’m wrong, but against this blitz happy defense with the line appearing to be struggling a bit to handle it, I don’t think that’s the right move.

 

[IrishBoognish]

My GF asked a good question. She always asks good questions about football and they're fun to answer... this one I don't know.

"What if it's cancelled? Is there a point in the game, like baseball, where the score just counts. Game over... Who's up wins."

Really slow

I think Estime is just not as quick and is also a little hesitant.

Flipping back and forth between fox and nbc is annoying
