Worth the price of admission just to watch #51 vs. #1.

I recall the ND football team showing for a game earlier this year for Faison.

Coach Locks posted this morning that he is on his way. Sure that Trader will be in the house as well ( fortunately for ND , he won’t be on the field).

This is all great for the game!

What are you talking about...?

Delay. Uggh. Who knows when this starts.....

Yuck….gonna be a long day.

Rain or lightning? Rain shouldn't delay a game...

Just light rain now, must be lightening in S Jersey - so they'll call it if S jersey has lightening.

Somehow this game will be about next year's Ivy League.

Most stadiums/schools have a lighting / thunder monitoring system. If it pops off within ‘x’ miles of location, it’s shutting down the event.

They move the game ahead by an hour because of the weather, then have a weather delay. Brilliant.

Umm. No. Not with this crew. It will about how great ND is and about the PLL.

Looks like its clearing, S Jersey was getting hit and maybe lightening is why they called it,

unfortunately, another passing by after 1pm - then maybe clearing.

The worst is south and leaving landfall.

Why not call it for 4 p.m. tomorrow when you know it will definitely be clear and no more guessing and 30 minute extensions? Don't care about fans in the building or the media. Care about players in the lockerroom, playing for a natty in the biggest game of their career....and having to guess when the game will be.

I know, roast me. Whatever.

1 PM start per Terps twitter

ND will have divine intervention to assure the best starting time and conditions. ND rolls 13-9.

i don’t understand the hate for these two. they are well educated on the game. they are not extreme. no crazy yelling. to me, they don’t distract from the actual game.

I believe there's a high correlation between people who dump on broadcasters (when the broadcaster is relatively innocuous) and people who wish they were the broadcaster.

(Start the game...)

Start time pushed back to 2 pm

Maybe 2 and then it still might rain, have lightning, etc. Is it too late to move the game to Baltimore at like 3 or so? 3 works for me.

I think it's just that people get annoyed with over the top hyperbole. But the reality is that it occurs in almost all games, sports, etc. It's the gap filling/entertainment factor that broadcast teams bring. Some are better than others.

Natural grass field. Looked to be in good shape the last 2 days, creases are dirt.
Who are the big change-of-direction players, and who has more applicable footwear now with the rain?
