Yep, the fog didn't get significantly worsen in the 4 minutes it took to play the top of the 6th. Never should've started the 6th... bullsh!t SEC office!!!Quote:

Exactly.....Plus, I don't see the fog lifting in 30 minutes either......Might as well just call it and resume it later...?..
Hold on. So you want Ole Miss to have a chance to tie or take the lead in a ball game we very likely will win due to fog?Quote:

Doesn’t work that way. Once it’s at five complete, it doesn’t matter.Quote:

It’s some bullshit
Game is set to resume at 10:55 via twitter. I'm no scientist/meteorologist, but I don't think fog can magically disappear in 30 mins
This isn't hard to figure out....LSU screwed up the hosting numbers for the conference by getting annihilated two weeks in a row.....conference office says "OM is next up, gotta do what we can to make them look good".
Oh, and please take note of the lack of "***".
I've got a LOT of experience as a photographer at a place that is VERY prone to fog. If you can still see ANYTHING on camera it's still absolutely playable. This is more about Ole Miss not being able to hit Small than it is about "fog".
You seem the forecast for tomorrow? Chances of them finishing this game tomorrow AND getting a second game in are pretty crappy.Quote:

I think in that case they would just finish this game and play one more 7 inning game.Quote:
