How is this sudden cold going to effect the team?
All the practices have been in crazy hot and humid weather. Now, just today, the temp has dropped 30 degrees. Is this going to effect catches and ball retention?

It will influence the team drastically, as they will be forced to wear some extra clothing.  All kidding aside, I don't think it will make too big of a deal except to some of the true freshman from warm weather states.  Connecticut has to play in this too and the wind might help our secondary out - maybe?
