Does offense ever practice in the rain/cold/snow?

Looking so sloppy in the rain - for a few years now.

On a related note, this certainly appears to be another "Sparty getting almost ever bounce game" so far -time to make our own luck

Not sure if they even practice against a defense, let alone in rain and snow . Shea playing scared and the running backs can’t hold onto the ball. In case that wasn’t enough, the play calls have been pretty poor as well.

i have my team fill up one of our barn buckets with water and the center had to dip the ball in the water every snap.  we'll do it a few times a year to get everyone ready to handle the wet ball.  helps.

They won.  In the rain.   I also would love the boards reaction to a player getting hurt practicing in the rain when we have a $100mil indoor facility.

As soon as Michigan's school of engineering invents a weather control device to schedule rain/cold/snow during practice sessions. As far as looking sloppy. Rain/Snow is generally a clusterfuck situation for any team. You could practice every day in those conditions, and shit will still happen.
