Has anyone ever been struck by lightning during a football game, ever? I realize we want to be safe, but if it has happened, I can't recall. They used to play in this stuff. More wussfication of football.

A fan was struck at a WestVirginia Marshall game in 2011

Skin, that was in the parking lot and he lived. So of the 6 million games played in bad weather, one dude got grazed in a parking lot in West Virginia. I think we're all safe. Kick it off already!

if anyone is interested... the dwags D and QB are pretty pathetic. Theyve had no answer for clumpsons O and Mason looks like hes just doing his best not to sh*t his britches every time he's forced to throw. If gurley wasnt playing they wouldnt have a point.

Still on the South endzone ramp looking at lightning bolts over Century Tower. Less rain though. Can't get on a weather site but Gatorchatter comes right up.

It's Florida for Gods sake... be patient administrators... don't be like Concert West and the Led Zeppelin debacle

 

[The Original DC]

So far, every team I wanted to lose, won or is winning. And the team I wanted to win isn't even playing. This is like a sucky, ex post facto bye week.

 

[Gatorious]

Did I just hear 9;27 kickoff?

 

[Gator Fever]

Hawaii may play before us at this rate.

 

[Delg8tor]

[bayou gator]

I'M LOSING MY MIND!!!!!! Will this game ever start?!!!

 

[TN G8tr]

I'm glad I bought extra food and beer.

I am willing to bet its cancelled and we get to add 7 more days to that long winless stretch. Muschamp is truly a dark cloud that looms large over this program.
