Is it just me or is the 6A game always the last one to be played?

It is tradition I suppose, but it is time to change it up.

Move 6A game to Louisville. 99% of time will be Louisville schools with use of RPI. Better attendance in Louisville than Lexington.

Wednesday morning update:

 

Friday we will see temperatures start out in the high 40s to low 50s for the first game. Temps look to rise from the high 50s to low 60s before they start to fall to around the low 40s by the end of the last game. As of now, the period looks to be dry with negligible wind. Skies will be mostly clear.

 

 

Saturday looks to be a little cooler than Friday. Temps are forecast to be in high 40s and the wind chill will be more noticeable. The wind chills will make it feel like its in the low 40s around the first game. The temperature will rise to the high 40s in the afternoon with little wind chill. For the evening game temps will fall from the low 40s to high 30s and the wind chill will make the feel like temperature from the mid to low 30s.

 

 

 

 

I will update everyone later today.

I'll take it. It may be slightly chilly with a little wind for our game Saturday, but you take this all day long for December football. Dang near perfect.

Wednesday evening update:

Look for temps on Friday high 40s to low 50s. The windchill Friday evening will make it feel like it is is the low 40s. The skies will be mostly cloudy. No precipitation is expected.

 

 

 

 

For Saturday temps will be in the low 50s falling to the low 40s Saturday night. The windchill will be more of a nuisance making the feel like temperature being in the high 30s Saturday night. The skies will be partly to mostly cloudy.
