High Winds, Cold Forecast for Saturday's Springfield Game

Hobart College alumnus and Weather Channel Producer Steve Petyerak '94 just tweeted out what is a potentially game changing forecast for Saturday's Hobart vs. Springfield matchup.

Winds up to 23-24 mph may ground the Statesmen's (5-1, 3-1) high flying passing game, forcing Hobart to run the ball more (an area the Statesmen have struggled with so far this season). This will be less of an issue for the Pride (4-3, 3-1) who run the ball over 90% of the time (and will be the focus of the Hobart defense who gave up almost 400 rushing yards the last time they played a triple option team).

Just another twist on what's a critical Week 8 game for both squads.
