(like levels the playing field a little more) I think it does, a little. It takes some energy our of the crowd. Another lightning strike. Next play won't be before about 10 after, barring further lightning. Looking at the radar. They may not get to finish this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 That was easily the best Zips kickoff I've seen in years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it would be moved to tomorrow. i.e. Western Michigan from last year(?). Edited September 2, 2018 by Let'sGoZips94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 If we can't play tonight, do you think we'd stay in Lincoln & play tomorrow like we did at WMU last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wasn't sure...because I know their a bigger stadium/team so I didn't know if that would be too costly to do. That means it wouldn't be on TV though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipsoutsider Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Take it for what it's worth. I just saw someone on Twitter claiming 2 sources indicate game will resume at 1:45 AM CT. I find that hard to believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Section210Zip Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Nebraska will absolutely want to get this game in if they think they can beat us, even if it is tomorrow. They only won 4 games last year. This game could determine bowl eligibility for them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WD UA 2015 Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Why can't this be played in Akron where Its 90 degrees and no rain from July though mid September!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WD UA 2015 Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I don't think this game is happening. Weather.com shows nebraska trailer park tornados through 12am eastern time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipsoutsider Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 We are in for a long night at Memorial Stadium folks.

Z.I.P. Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Too bad, but I gotta leave for Aloha Stadium! Navy vs Hawaii. Hoped to get this in before. Oh, well... ? Beautiful weather today in Hawai'i. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipsoutsider Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) So this likely either gets in tonight or not at all. Educated guesses are indicating they’re looking at a 10:00 p.m. decision on this game. Nebraska’s and Akron’s bye weeks don’t match up, so if this game doesn’t happen this weekend, it likely won’t be played at all.
