What was it that kept causing the game to be delayed? Weather? I don't think they clarified it enough on the highlights, or maybe I wasn't paying enough attention. Either way great start for ND hahaha, they're clearly headed on the right path. 3 turnovers inside the red zone? Now that's how you win football games.

Well, the first game delay was basically a bad storm hit the area - rain, lightening, wind, etc. But I've definitely seen worse conditions. The second delay was even more absurd, there was nothing. It was the threat of something that never actually happened. It was all around bizarre to say the least.

Wu Marshall got called off early too. Very frustrating. Maybe there is a new weather mandate in the NCAA this year?

Yeah heard about that too. I think the NCAA is taking weather a lot more seriously this year than in year's past. I can't remember seeing this many games delayed, or in Michigan's case ended, over weather concerns in one weekend no less.
