This final stretch of the season will show our physical advantage from missing a game in September. We will be one game fresher than all of our opponents. Coach Mike's S and C work along with that missed game will have us another step faster and a 5 lbs plate stronger than anyone we play. I think we shall see the 11 game season as good thing in retrospect. My .02 worth.

Not a bad thought...

Meh. Doubtful. Flip side could argue they have an extra game of experience. IMO, neither matters. They're college kids. Whoever shows up that given saturday, wants it more, and is the better team will win that day. Easy as that.

Fresher and less guys on dinged up way better than the other game of playing experience

Weather may help us. Snow in forecast for the High Country later this week. Chilly for the weekend. GASt. doesn't handle cold snowy games very well.

Agreed. Late season, our single largest advantage is home atmosphere and weather. 15000-25000+ loud and rowdy fans when it is snowing sideways can be intimidating to people who are already cold and miserable... and that is before the whooping begins...

According to Weather Channel Saturday shows a high of 52 and sunny in Boone....

When do we practice in the cold and when do we use the indoor facility?

I don’t think we will need any weather advantage

The only weather that will come into play on Saturday is whether Ga State can score against this stingy defense.

Just remember that GSU no longer plays in a dome and it's pretty nasty in north Georgia right now also. SE will have them better prepared for the conditions. We won't need the weather to be a factor.
