I hope this doesn't jinx us. Now granted I haven't looked in a few days, but last time I did, the forecast said rain, so that's what I've been mentally preparing for (at least my M rain jacket is blue, since this is apparently a blue out)...
October 27th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
Dry weather has been in the forecast nearly all week. There are no fronts or low pressure areas that would cause uncertainty. In addition, the wind will be light with speeds of 5 mph or less before and during the game.
Wear Blue and Go Blue!

Yeah, I don't think you can get a much better weather day for football in late October in Michigan! Perfect for tailgating too. Can't wait.

Someone mentioned rain & 30 mph gusts last week. I've been looking since then and haven't seen precipitation or wind in the forecast. Weather.com, Accuweather & Weather underground are all about the same. What was your source?

I mean, honestly, not sure the weather even matters? I guess conditions that increase variance is generally good for the underdog, but if MSU wants to win I think their offense will be dependent on the pass game more than UM. The only thing their O does well is YOLO the ball to WRs. Not super efficent, but can be a difference in a high variance game. If it's terrible weather with both teams stacking boxes and running, wouldn't that still advantage UM even though MSU has a terrible secondary. This MSU isn't those Dantonio teams that had great defenses even if the offense was mediocre to bad.
Any way you slice it, UM is just the better team.

"I threw for 394 yards, but the weather lost us this game. Especially because U of M had different conditions!!"

Thank you for 'clearing the air'.... OPs on the blog today have been total downers until you showed up shinning like the sun!
Beautiful autumn weather for a beat down!!!! Onward
GO BLUE!
October 27th, 2022 at 1:43 PM ^
Yep. Already checked it. I think the beers will start on the back nine and flow right through game time. Set up to be a great day.
October 27th, 2022 at 1:53 PM ^
now we're talking!! Set my tee time for 1030 , be home by half time of the noon games.. get food prepped and settled in to enjoy a wonderful evening of Michigan football
October 27th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
... and low wind. Light them up, JJ!
October 27th, 2022 at 1:53 PM ^
I wonder how the state fans will keep warm back in East Lansing...
October 27th, 2022 at 1:56 PM ^
Ouch! Let's burn the couch!
October 27th, 2022 at 1:56 PM ^
This is fine
October 27th, 2022 at 2:05 PM ^
They used the bye week to prepare to up their couch burning game.
October 27th, 2022 at 2:02 PM ^
I heard that may be a bit warm for CJ Stroud and company - having to deal with that kinda unseasonable heat is difficult. Also I heard a few of them were worried they'd been exposed to leishmaniasis. Maybe something to be wary of in State College.
October 27th, 2022 at 2:03 PM ^
Perfect for tailgating this time of year, and a comfortably cool evening before the students head out to Halloween themed after game activities.

MGoArchive usurping mgoweather's moment in the sun!
October 27th, 2022 at 4:38 PM ^
Based on the quality of the OP, she's not in any real danger there.
October 27th, 2022 at 2:23 PM ^
Definitely beats the last time MSU came to visit at night - 2017. Monsoon in the 3rd and early 4th quarters - no scoring after the rain came. Granted - UM played terrible before that and had JOK bumbling around.
October 27th, 2022 at 2:35 PM ^
Too soon...
October 27th, 2022 at 2:49 PM ^
I will wait for MGoWeather. She is the only one I trust. Except for that Hawaii game fiasco she has been excellent. But I think the OP nailed it. Go Blue!!
October 27th, 2022 at 2:59 PM ^
I won't believe this until mgoweather confirms
October 27th, 2022 at 3:41 PM ^
Glad to hear it. We had perfect weather for the bye week and part of me thought we should have had the MSU game then. But I'll take this too.
October 27th, 2022 at 4:25 PM ^
Weather has been nice on the drive up from Georgia so far.
October 28th, 2022 at 7:57 AM ^
Looks like a beautiful saturday. 68 and sunny down here in columbus and we will be throwing a nice little tailgate at our house.
All the buckeye fans get confused when I wear the "beat state" shirt and angry when I tell them not everything is about them lol
