Yes. He was the flapping butterfly wing that caused the lightning that caused the cancellation. How is that not obvious to everyone?

The kids still got a week away from home and some nice stuff. I can’t see how anyone could think they made a poor decision to cancel the game given the circumstances. I do not see the correlation in missing a game that was canceled due to weather versus deciding not to play because you don’t want to.

The correlation is they could have delayed it or rescheduled it but they didn’t want to.

No other factors involved

They would have had to move it to another day, because the weather is supposed to get worse later this evening with up to 50MPH winds and severe lightning.

You know why they didn’t move the game? Because it’s a meaningless game.

Help me to understand a weather-related delay in a game played inside a stadium with a retractable roof. Couldn’t they just close it? Do they also have lightning delays at the Benz?

It was in the Cotton Bowl, not Jerry World.

Still, both BC and BSU put in more effort than the Jackets, who picked up their check and took the Quick Lane out of Detroit.
Can’t say I blame them.

I believe he did right up until it got called off.
