Weather forecast from Lubbock A-J ....

Anyone know if the stadium sits down in a hole like agcs?

 

[Limp Lizard]

I think someone told me their field is below ground level, like ACS, but I remember some game there 30+ years ago where the wind was a major factor. Don't know if the current configuration blocks out as much wind as the Carter. Nowadays it has to be some great wind to affect play.

They didn't acquire that moniker of 'Sand Aggie' because they dwell in a floral Shangri-la.

It is one. And it's full of them.

With the strong arm of S. Robinson, the normal plays of lateral or 5, 10 yard even 15 yard passes probably will not be a problem. If we decide or try a long or longer pass then maybe the wind will be a factor. Field goal attempts with our kicker is very uncertain. We need to run the ball today. TT will stack the box and dare SR to beat them throwing. Fun to see. I'm looking forward to it.

Good pump up song...

I remember watching a game there in the SWC, where both teams were covered with mud.

They had artificial turf......

That place sucks so much

Come on man. You're killing me with all the negativity.

Ha. Just kidding. Lubbock is the darning worst.

Yeah. This will be fun. High risk, high reward. Honestly I couldnt see us beating OU in a rematch without some sort of change in our offense. Let’s go all in and live with the consequences...

Truth. And they are surrounded by Plainview, Levelland, Earth, Littlefield, Plains, Cotton Center, and Brownfield. Those are not just towns...they are clues. They only throw in Meadow, Texas to confuse people.

 

[hornedfrog86]

I wonder if that field still has a high crown and slippery turf?

Pretty much the same weather in Fort Worth today, but with us being on the low prairie, we don't have all that blowing High Plains sand and dust they have in Lubbock.

And without the consistent smell of cow [ Finebaum ].
