South Carolina St.

I’ll take the extra day of rest / prep before Louisville.
I like the way our schedule is setup. We can an extra day of prep for Louisville and an extra day for our first road game at fau. Later in the season we get a bye week before temple and an extra day of prep before the ecu trip. Hopefully this helps the injury bug that killed us last year

I was hoping the rain would hit mid afternoon and cool things down, so the evening thunderstorms would not develop. Weather is not looking good at 7pm. Looks like this game will finish late.

If any of you guys are Orlando City fans, you’ve seen what the weather issues were like the last 2 games. That’s what we could expect tonight. There was a 1 hour and 45 minute delay last night

It's going to start raining right when the game starts unfortunately. We need to invest in a dome!
 
Rain doesnt matter. They play in rain. It’s lightning. Some sports its 8 mile radius. Not sure what football is. Typically 30 minutes from last strike.

no Domes looks stale unless you have Jerry money which we don’t.shade/rain panels need to be added though

Orlando Labor Day weekend weather is more of a reason to seek a neutral site matchup in Atlanta though to start a season

I know we see the name South Carolina St. as our first opponent and we are all thinking a blowout. Just bringing it to everyone’s attention that we are facing a pretty good opponent in week 1.

* They won 6 of their last 7 games last year including a bowl win over Deion Sanders 11 win Jackson St team 31-10.
* They return 18 starters (9 on both sides of the ball).
* WR #1 Davis is 6’5 and going to be a problem.

This team looks just as good as Tulane, usf, East Carolina, etc.
As our first game I don't think we will under estimate them. The players are excited to get out there and hit someone for real.

Weather outlook is a little concerning after last years opener. If there's a rain delay maybe I'll turn on the OKST game.
