What is the weather going to be like in Missoula for the game?
I know that SHU is from Connecticut so bad weather is not an issue for them.
Just wondering what it will be like

I saw kickoff temp would be around 49 and cloudy, no rain and very light wind.

Since they were at home last week and complaining it was in the 60's, I would say that weather would be an issue for them.

COLD and LOUD

Cold, LOUD and playing at elevation of 3,209' instead of 59'. No wonder they flew in yesterday.

Is 3209' really an issue...

I just hope it is loud.

Maybe elevation is not an issue, but why is it always brought up when Montana plays in Flagstaff? Regardless, blow 'em out!!

I say it isn't. My wife says it is. If you believe it is, it will become an issue, so don't tell them an maybe it can be, then once the excuses start to mount up, it will be Running Rabbit time!

Because the elevation of Flagstaff is 7000... that makes a difference...

Most performance athletes start to feel an affect at 5000 feet...

Just some other notes I found on SHU's page, they have been preparing for the wrong team according to this

Wide receiver Junior Bergen has emerged as Ah Yat’s go-to weapon, averaging 88.6 receiving yards per game.
Linebacker Levi Janacaro leads the team with 55 tackles and 4.5 sacks, while safety Ryder Meyer anchors a secondary that has limited opposing quarterbacks to a 52% completion rate.

If they are already in town Thursday, I can believe they are here to acclimate, temperature and altitude are an issue, to them. They can't do a thing about the noise and with all the rest of it in their head, they are in trouble already.

I see now they are predicting 30% chance of rain?

From the National Weather Service:
Mostly sunny, with a high near 57. Light south southwest wind.

Weather and elevation don’t matter as much as a good night’s sleep. I’ve heard there’s problems with the fire alarm system going off in their hotel. Can anyone remind me which hotel they’re staying at?

Thank you! Looks like a Jim Beam Fire shots day!

One never know when it might snow in Montana. I suggest SH go rent some sideline heaters and blankets.

You have a gift for matching the weather to the correct alcohol.

NEZ, time to get oiled up! It's close enough to party time for you, nothing out of your pedigree for sure. LOUD AND PROUD PEOPLE!

SEZ, try to keep up with them the best you can, you've been doing a good job this year, but time to kick it up a notch aw we get closer to the brawl.

Everyone in between, try to keep the rabid wildlife in the crowd, no waves on offense, BIG IMPROVEMENT on that this year. Westside, don't underestimate your impact on the sidelines making it hard for them to communicate and adjust.

We need good early results, and I think if we can come out swinging and get their offense off the field quickly their first two series, success will build on itself. Someone on face book, be sure to send them a photo of the scoreboard at the end of the game.
