Here is my initial forecast for Friday. I’m hopeful that the system moves faster than anticipated and we see less rain.
Tulane at North Texas – Friday Night Weather
At kickoff around 7 PM it will be cool, damp and very likely raining.
Temperature near 59 °F with a real feel around 57. North wind around 6 to 7 mph, with gusts near 16 mph early in the game. Humidity will sit in the mid to upper 80s so it will feel raw and chilly.
Showers are likely to be around for most of the game. Rain chances run about 70 to 85 percent from 7 PM through roughly 11 PM, with periods of light to moderate rain and a few heavier bursts. A rumble of thunder cannot be ruled out, but the bigger story is a steady soaker rather than severe storms.
Temperatures hold in the upper 50s through the second half. By late in the game and toward midnight rain chances start to slowly ease back toward 60 to 65 percent while winds back off to 3 to 5 mph with lower gusts near 10 mph.
Bottom line
Cool, wet, and breezy at times with a high chance you are playing in rain for most of the night, field staying slick from start to finish.

I like the run game in favor of NT. I think our strong-armed QB can still find one or two throws to change the game.
I don't know that the weather necessarily favors Tulane though, their run game is not better than ours
Apparently Rally House sells Mean Green ponchos though. Might come in handy lol
I'll be in NO and I expect to be in the press box, but if worst comes to worst, I'll bring my rain gear haha.
My dad and I are planning to make the trip. Thought the cold and rain might scare him off, but I think we’re still gonna make the drive
Was not expecting cold and wet…

I've been writing the preview. Catching up on some real-life work after the holiday break though, so it will be after I catch up there.
