ABSOLUTELY!
The wife and I made our exit in October of 2022 for coastal GA, so I'm forever done with shoveling snow.
I never really put on more than a sweatshirt to go out and shovel predawn with temps between 15 to 25 degrees. Now if was before sunrise and barely 5 degrees I might put on two sweatshirts and shovel faster.
Below minus 10? I'd just pick up the phone, call work and tell 'em the car won't start (which could have been true 30% of the time).
Oh yeah, go SMU. Crush the Eagles; pluck every feather!!!

Slight chance of rain. About 30%. I can live with that.

That helps, but we need the wind to remain at the level of a light breeze.
Have you guys checked your tickets? It looks like SMU end zone seats are in sections F55-56. In the baseball layout, we'd be sitting between home plate and third base!

I know HC RL stated he coached at Fenway before, but is substitution a challenge because teams share the same sideline? I think that is what Jeff Hafley is describing in this interview.
Anyone want to clarify the issues at Fenway with regards to substitution> And is this a big deal?

With Rhett coaching, we've got a chance. Sonny was awful at finishing seasons at SMU.
Boston is a great place to visit, not so much in late December. At best it will be cold and cloudy.

We haven't won a bowl game since 2012 and have had really ugly games 2 of the last 3 we've played in, so hopefully this is the group that can change that. I'm expecting a low scoring (for us) slobber knocker type of game but will call it 27-20 SMU
