What can go wrong?

Post by Seadog73 »

A player breaks a leg during warm-ups. It has happened.
A player gets sick and throws up all day until kick-off. It has happened, twice that I know of, a starting QB and Jimmy Williams.
A long delay and possible penalty because the uniforms are ruled non-conforming and illegal? It has happened.

What else?
Lengthy delay due to rain? Not likely, The Weather Channel says it should be around 85 and sunny at kick-off.

Anti-jinx on all that can go wrong.

The fact that Mason admitted that told a lot about him.

Hawaii averages 8 yards per play running the same four or five play rotation throughout the game (as SMU did in 1990).

Vanderbilt's "get-flattened-on-every-play" defense was on the field only for the first drive last night

It was a good game to start the season.
