Rain predicted for Saturday in Happy Valley - Helps or Hurts Us?

[Alaskawildkat]

Sourced from the hurricane that hit Florida likely, but in any event a weekend of rain is predicted for Happy Valley. Thoughts on how that could affect us and/or Penn State?

It's gotta help us.

Neither. Both have to play in the same stuff

 

[phatcat]

Might slow it down a bit. They will score less quickly

 

[CatManTrue]

If we win, it helped us.
If we lose, it hurt us.

Any more questions?

 

[Sheffielder]

Inclement weather and adverse conditions typically help the underdog...

 

[gocats8992]

If it able to slow their passing game down it will help us

 

[TheC]

If it washes away some of the scum that is the Penn State football program, then it can only help everyone.

There... how's that for an answer?!!

Maybe, but often doesn't work that way. Like horses, some teams are mudders.

Bad weather ALWAYS helps the team with less physical talent.
The advantages of the superior team are reduced because they cant execute at their normal skill level.

Doesn't solve our problems, though.

Always? Not if the superior talent in question is ramming the ball down opponents’ throats.

 

[FeralFelidae]

So, it helped us, but we couldn't take advantage.

ALWAYS.
