Five SEC games have been delayed, canceled or called early due to lightning this season.
The Florida-Idaho game disappeared beneath a monsoon and won’t be rescheduled. Alabama’s 41-0 win against Florida Atlantic concluded with about half the fourth quarter to play.
As of Friday evening, thunderstorms are a possibility during at least four SEC games tomorrow, with Georgia-South Carolina representing the most likely possibility. The kickoff forecast in Columbia, S.C., calls for a 60 percent chance of precipitation with scattered thunderstorms.
Thunderstorms also could pop up in pockets near the Gulf Coast, potentially affecting SEC games in Baton Rouge, La., Mobile, Ala., and Gainesville, Fla.
Missouri fans may want to consider bringing a light coat to the game, particularly if they arrive early. The forecast in Columbia, Mo., calls for a kickoff temperature of 53 degrees.
