Looks like middle & west TN.  Important games that they prolly wanna get in and not take a chance on Friday's weather. And again, idk which of these games if any were rescheduled for tonight.  I highly doubt all 31 games were originally set for tonight though.

I didn't know whether was going to be a factor. That's so funny 15-20 years ago we were never thought about rescheduling games because of weather we just played it and went on! That's part of the game if you don't play in a dome.

They have rules now. Lightning rules. I'd say with important region games and the ability to mass communicate changes in plans it's for the best. If one thinks weather will be a factor in postponing a game this close to end of regular season and throw everything topsy turvy why not reschedule?

Didnt think about the rules we have now.Just remember us playing in all kinds of weather.But we also didnt have the targeting and other rules we have now.I still think weather is part of the game tho.Shouldnt be able to change just because rain is forecasted,so many games have been rescheduled for nothing.Alot of fans have to miss for a weekday game also.I for one would have to on a short notice.

Also a shortage of officials across the state. Many schools were asked before the season started to move games to Thursdays for lack of officials so next time you want to holler at the "Zebras" you might want to have a 2nd thought.

Weather is part of it to me also.  Lightning is just a different animal.  I'm no weather man so I really don't know what middle and west TN is looking like for Friday night.  Outdoor events where kids are involved are looked at more closely now than ever.

Some folks will attend an event no matter the weather.  How many times have we've seen where an outdoor event like a concert turn bad because of weather? Even when the stormy weather was predicted.  Sometimes someone has to look out for folks for their own safety.
