Glad someone finally brought this up. No, I am not worried.

If it really rained as much as they say it did, it may benefit us.  Miami may get slowed down a bit.

More worried about Weird Robert.  Heard he doesn't like storms. 
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

He's got 3 ziplocks full of burger and brat.  He'll be fine.

Hoping the soggy conditions will negate some of their speed, sorta like ND growing out their grass vs FSU back in the day.  :pray:

Never understood this logic. Because wouldn't it slow the slow team down too and thus the slow to speed "ratio" would remain the same?

I have also wondered about the logic behind that line of thinking but it's 2-0 now, so eff logic.

I think that the general idea is that you can only run so fast in the mud, and that the fast team would be slowed down at a greater ratio than the slow team.
