White out at Albany vs Wagner. Can't even see the field.

The Yale game is on the YES network. The camera is covered with moisture and you can barely see the action.

Albany is on Fox College Sports.

It looks like they're just playing in the middle of a random field.

It is coming down in Easton but we don't kickoff until 6... bad move should be 1pm!

Had to forgo the Cornell/Princeton game - just too much snow and wind for the ladies this afternoon. Watching Lehigh/Colgate on CBS College Sports - not a flake of snow in Hamilton, NY. I will brave it myself up to Easton a little later.

Meanwhile it's 14-3 Lehigh start of the second; Colgate showing no D. Game over. Start the bus.

Should be very interesting in Easton. May have to park in the arts lot on third and walk the stairs if they dont plow!! Ha ha... that's probably the first street they plow.

Yale managed a FG after a Columbia turnover. 3-0 Yale early in the 2nd

Props to the Maine fans, they are rolling into the lot next to my dorm as we speak. 10 hour drive or so through the storm to tailgate in the icy rain/snow. Thats dedication right there.

This weather makes this a wildcard week for all the teams playing in these conditions. Anybody can win any of the games. Being the favorite today means nothing.

Gives a team like us hope today. Running is the only thing we've done good on offense this year and I would think this weather has pretty much killed the passing game

True blizzard. I've got no power now. Sucks because I also have no heat now either.

Still have Internet though. thanks Steve Jobs!

I'm bummed I'm not up there to see a couple of those games in person. We had snow flurries down here at Appalachian State, but the sun just came out. Cold, but otherwise fine.

My family is in Warren County...no pictures but I know they are warming up the generator because the snow is not looking good!

The flakes haven't begun to fall here in the middle of NH...although it looks like it could begin at any moment. I pray the power stay on.

I am not a big fan of premature snow fall!

I did check out some of that Albany game...holy smoke that was a white out!

Still no power for me and it's getting cold in here.

Hope they get it back on soon, but it's not looking good out.

AWESOME... the way football should be played! Hopefully its a grass field!

Snow/sleeted the entire Nova game. I'd estimate about 3" fell during the course of the game based off of what collected on my buddy's hot chocolate cup from the 1st quarter. You know its cold when you watch them wiping the windows in the press box with a squeegee to pull the moisture off. A lot of fans bailed out by half time and by the end of the 4th quarter there was maybe about 150 people left.
Lovely weather for some football

Not quite white out conditions but still pretty snowy.

I watched some of that game. The players were slipping everywhere. I felt bad for Fordham, playing in that has to be miserable and getting beat that bad makes it even worse.

StonyBrook dominates Coastal Carolina in sleet/rain and wind . Final Seawolves 42 Coastal 0 . Three running backs go over 100 yards on the ground. All scored at least once.

Maybe Michelle Bachmann was right.....

Slippery day out at Stony Brook. Not the first time we've won a game without throwing a completion (sorry Pards), now we set a conference record with 400+ yards rushing. A touch under 200 for both J and M, around 100 for Cruz, the other Hanson trophy winner on the team. 42-0 win against Coastal.

Liberty now looking a little vulnerable after giving up 250+ rushing to Presbyterian and being taken to Double OT. We may be knocking on the back door! I'm es-scared!

I suppose it might look like a blizzard if you've never seen a blizzard before. Looks like a typcial April snow in North Dakota to me (except warmer.) :)

Here's a non-blizzard in NDSU country (and, btw, no way was it 19 degrees out there.)

Where they win by 3-4 TDs over everyone...Presby really had it for the taking...

Presby definitely had them on the ropes. Summers made a ridiculous catch in the second OT which was the difference.

I was surprised by the crowd in Lynchburg, the stadium was barely half full. I thought Liberty gets 15k+ for every game.

Hahahaha, I hear ya - just use it that she's now been reduced to mildy humerous punnery.

And yes, I was thinking the whole time about Liberty's unbeatable home advantage watching this. All I have to say is that there was one Liberty chick near the ESPN crowd audio feed who kept screaming on the top of her lungs...really, really annoying. All in all, it proves that Any Given Saturday....

Yup still no power. Temps down in the 50s in my house now. Lots of blankets on the bed!

Sucks too because lots of good games today. I'm stuck checking updates on my phone.

Btw - looking better and better like UA @ SBU thanksgiving weekend! Winner to UNH in the second round for an all-AEast bracket!

Still no power for me. I moved down to my sister-in-laws. They're saying power is coming back soon but we'll see. I'm in no rush right now to get home to my refrigerator/freezer, which I'm sure smells delicious.

Hey..did I mention I'm working in short sleeves today in Houston?

One of my account managers is in Boston and they have been without power...I invited them to somehow get out of the NE and stay at my casa on the beach.
