For next Saturday on my WAPT app. Obviously that doesn't mean a damn thing because forecasts usually suck this far out. But hypothetically, would rain help/hurt us next weekend?

I feel like we are better, so I don't want weather to neutralize the game for them. But I would think it would put a damper on that home field advantage if it was raining buckets.

Thoughts?

And Ref, is this even a possibility for next weekend? I am simply going off of a news station weather app. So take it for what it's worth.

I would guess it would help us slightly because Alabama is a pass first offense under Kiffen even though they are a balanced offense.

Remember how well Alabama played Arkansas in the rain. It definitely helps us...

Would help them. Rain makes the secondary slip more than WR because they do not know what direction they will have to run. A lot of people think rain=help run the ball but it's the passing game that gets the boost.

hurt us IMO. I like our defense against their offense, but not on a wet field.

I seen it dawg

This game is about our offense not defense. Weather won't be a factor for us. We will out score them.
