LSU's biggest opponent this week is not the Florida Gators but the weather. Not getting all the games in will affect LSU's ability to finish in the Top 4 in the SEC, and this same weather could hurt Alabama's ability to play their home games against South Carolina who LSU sits behind the Gamecocks at a half game.

I always thought that SEC games couldn't be cancelled?

That is from the National Weather Service. Could be a little touchy getting in games Thursday/Friday. Saturday looks fine.

Every time it seems we are worried about shitty weather for the weekend, we end up getting all the games in.

A Saturday DH looks inevitable. It will be a great day to be on campus.

I'm going to go on record as saying I think Florida's pitching is going to be a bigger opponent than some cloudbursts.

LSU is undefeated against the weather this year, but we also haven't won a game against the weather either. We're 0-0. Hopefully the weather doesn't throw their ace against us this week.
