HSU/LC game cancelled due to weather.  What's going on in SA?

[DPU3619]

Does Josh win some special prize for the being the first poster on the 100th page of this thread?

Still in a delay at DPU/TU.  I've heard nothing new in the last 20 minutes or so.

[DPU3619]

New update is that there's a final decision coming on whether or not to play within the next half hour or so.

That's what seems odd, Pat.  All the radar maps I've looked at over the last two hours have shown very little rain or lightning in the immediate vicinity (tho admittedly the lightning detection on radar often leaves a lot to be desired).   There's nothing like being there, tho ...

[DPU3619]

I'm under the impression that after the delay starts, you have to be completely free of lightning strikes for at least half an hour before play can resume. 

Looks like there's pretty colors moving through the southern part of town.  I would imagine that would mean you could see lightning from it.

Anybody have a clue if I'm anywhere close to correct?

[Pat Coleman]

DPU, that's my understanding, it's either a half-hour or an hour.

The delay is 30 minutes from the last reading 3-8 miles away.  We have had countlesss strikes in that range for the past couple of hours - including some within the past 30 minutes.

Officials from TU and DU are meeting now to make a decision about the game.

Talk about irony.  Another Louisiana College game is cancelled due to inclement weather, and it looks like another Trinity/DePauw game will be cancelled for the same reason.

This will definitely make both conferences infinitely more interesting moving forward.

If the SA game is cancelled, this time it will be DPU with the upper hand as Trinity has a loss and, after SCAC record, overall record would be the next tiebreaker.

THis totally sucks.  They should get to play.  Totally unfortunate if it gets called.

[DPU3619]

WGRE has said the game is postponed until 12 CST tomorrow.

[dpuinaz]

will there be a webcast?
