I still wish we could have had better weather for that game. The freezing rain was a killer, and our staff wasn't prepared AT ALL for it.
It seem like every trip I made from Nov on ice/freezing rain followed me..
No ice on our trip to West Point in Nov but cold windy weather followed us...about 60 degrees when we left NYC Nov 9th..38 and 20+ mpg gust at the game
We left West Point after the game heading to Wichita (1st basketball game of the season) and while it didn't snow or ice while we were there we hit it on the way home
San Marcos in Nov freezing rain
Monroe on Jan 22nd snow
Lafayette on Jan 22nd-23rd we actually left Monroe after our game so we could beat the ice to Lafayette. Wasted a $100 hotel room in Monroe but a good decision
Feb 8th Little Rock had about 4 inches of snow when we went down for our basketball game...it missed Jonesboro two days later
Feb 27th we actually had great weather in San Marcos for our trip this time...68 degrees and sunshine makes a campus look totally different. Not so impressed on our first visit but that really changed in Feb....loved the campus. I think USA is still my favorite in the SBC ( more my style of buildings) but TXST has a really nice campus. TAKE that wall down! it really makes giving a opinion on the basketball arena very hard to do.
March 1st Dallas (I call that whole area Dallas) we had GREAT weather sunshine and 70+ degrees for our game @UTA (hands down the best arena in the SBC) but that changed by that night/early March 2nd. We actually left a few hours earlier than planned (4am) because ice was on the way and a huge snow storm was suppose to hit Arkansas Little Rock...
we ran into a mist of freezing rain about 45 minutes outside of Dallas and made it through Little Rock...right as it started to snow.
I was expecting it to ice or snow when we went to the National Championship game but the weather was great
