45 degrees and hurricane force winds whipping through Auburn right now. Ripped awning off RV, almost carried away the corn hole game. My black lab is loving it though LOL.

Anyway I don't know if Harris can air it out successfully down field. With the vertical passing game being suppressed by mother nature I believe we should rethink the starting qb situation. Let Jennings come in and control the game with a powerful running game, option plays, and wide receiver screens. All night.

Hopefully our defense can stymie their run game as I know Gus will utilize the same thought process.

He will, but not because of the wind. Because our qb can't hit shite beyond 15 yards.

After hearing about the SPIN Harris puts on the ball, I think that favors Harris over any of the other QBs in the game. He can drill a ball with speed. They NEVER wobble. That will not be as affected as a softer toss. They all have good spirals but, from what I have read about BH's spirals, receivers have to adjust to being hit with his passes. I think a wind would actually hurt the others but not him as much.

I remember worrying about the rain last year. It actually favored the P&G Tigers. While I will need some chemical relaxation to get through the game, I think we do a lot better in this one than anyone is predicting.

This makes no sense. Harris can hand the ball off just as well as Jennings can, has a better arm, and is a better runner himself.

No. Les made the change and he needs to stick to it. End of story. We don't need two QBs who don't know where they stand with the coach. We need a starter and a backup.

Change qb's? Because of wind? Harris is not as good at handing off?

We look favorably on the opportunity to enhance our implementing the gameplan with the added feature of quality weather characteristics.

Even given how ridiculous I know this board can be, I literally can't believe that I just read this. Someone now WANTS Jennings back as the starter because of the weather 10 hours before game time. HO LEE CRAP.

And lastly, some fans think Les Miles hasn't changed a game plan in years. Now some think he could change an entire game plan the afternoon of a game?

This place is unbelievable.

Did Les Miles sleep in your camper last night by chance?
