“An NCAA rule is that for every lightning strike, they have to add 30 minutes to the delay.”

What dumb rule from people who live in the Midwest. The number of strikes has jack **** to do with thunderstorms in Florida.

I had 14 ground strikes within 2 miles of my house one day last month in a 30 minute storm, then it was crystal clear.
 
If a rain delay causes you to lose a game to a team that can’t run with you, the writing was on the wall anyway.
You hit the proverbial nail on the head. If we lose and blame it on the rain delay, we’re in for a very long year.
