What about having WRs know where the ball is going?It could play a major factor in the Batavia/ Naz game currently game time is calling for wind and snow showers. Having 3 RBs that go 200lbs and up will be an advantage for Batavia
Doesn't matter if they are sliding all over the place.What about having WRs know where the ball is going?

Ha, that would be a first.”so nobody can complain.”
See I have a different opinion. A WR knows where they are going so slipping doesn't effect them as much as a DB that has no clue what route someone is running. Let's hope for good enough weather so nobody can complain.
Oh man, having visions of the 2015 semis and CG trying to stop Sam Brodner in the tundra. CG's outside speed was ineffective. I'm hoping CG gets the benefit this time with power up the middle and ND's outside game is slowed down.

I do think the conditions benefit running teams, especially power running offenses. I also think weather could be an equalizer in terms of narrowing the talent gap in a given match up. For instance, if I'm a Loyola fan, I want the weather to be as bad as possible. It will limit LWE's offense and possibly lead to a low scoring game where LA can rely on their defense and catching a break or two to win a low scoring game heavily influenced by the weather.What teams get helped? hurt? by these conditions Saturday?
That game was the best HS football game I have ever been at. Snow piled so deep they have to have the yard markers shoveled many times during the game as well as the end zone when the teams got that close. Back and forth moving the ball for both teams. Montini takes the lead in the 4th quarter and then Samson leads his PR team within the Montini ten yard line in the closing seconds of the game. Great stop by Montini on 4th and short during which play I closed my eyes as I didn't want to see PR get the yardage. The packed Montini crowd let me know that PR didn't get it. Talk about a nail biter.
Where is that?
Monticello. I had to click on the link to find out. Was equally as flummoxed.Where is that?
My girl Morgan said snow overnight Friday in Saturday morning and possibly Saturday afternoon.

It was 3 years ago that STL had the semi v NAZ - the St Laurence snow removal equipment broke down so myself and about 25 other volunteers (alum; students, friends, etc..) manually shoveled the field - we started just after 9am and shoveled up until game time - maybe 10 inches that day - it never stopped. I lasted until the 4Q keeping the sidelines clear and some hash marks. First scrimmage play, I was down about 70 yards on the west 20 yard line (Viking Field runs east/west) clearing off the entire line from north to south - I was in the middle of the field when the NAZ RB broke loose at the Viking 10 yard line - I never moved so fast to get out of the way. Despite a 34-0 beating, I will never forget that day!!! Later in the day , we headed to Marist - and their field was spotless for their evening semi vs WbValley. Marist won so not a bad day - a record FitBit day for me in terms of steps!!!
Plus, they have the word “ North” right in their name.St. Charles North is obviously located further North than MC. That gives them a decisive advantage with this weekend's weather forecast.
About 1 hour prior to game - after a few hours of manual shoveling - the field looked great and the snow stopped. When the teams took the field for pre-game it came down heavy again. We could not keep up with the snow while the teams ran through their warmups. It was very neat to be able to walk through the NAZ pregame drills and huddles and get that pre-game perspective - I was just trying to keep their half of the field clear. Just prior to the game the refs wanted to talk with me - they thought was in an official capacity LOL. Instead of telling them I was just Joe Fan/Alum, I took their direction and stayed with it for most of the game. I was able to watch the game and work the field during play stoppage, timeouts, etc... Good times!As somone with a vested interest in that game, I think you for that. It looked pretty awful but all things considered you guys did a great job.

Thanks !!- and I was just thinking that was probably Love - the first play of the game, 95 yards after Naz muffed the kick-off. I think if I went low I could have tackled him at about the 15 - if I went high he would have made a snow angel out of me!That Naz RB was Julian Love, now playing CB at Notre Dame. Y’all did a great job with the field that day!
And some teams are going to lose.Teams that run or pass the ball will have a difficult time this weekend.
