Miami awaits the winner of the Peach Bowl, which features No. 1 Indiana taking on No. 5 Oregon in Atlanta, Georgia, on Friday. The big questions leading up to the game are how the weather will be in the Southeast and how much it will affect the game.
As of now, severe thunderstorms have been wreaking havoc across the region, but will they be severe enough to delay the game on Friday? It had been warm over the last few weeks, which has created pressure that has led to a storm system hitting the Southeast, from as far north as the Carolinas to as far south as Louisiana.
Peach Bowl Game Weather Report Today
For Indiana fans travelling to and from the Atlanta area before and after the game, expect heavy rain due to a storm system.
Rainfall is expected from Friday to Saturday, so yes, the Peach Bowl is bound to be a wet one, with precipitation at 75% around gametime, and a few inches of rain, to be exact.
Travel might also be disrupted for fans traveling to and from Atlanta to watch the game live. A few inches of rainfall should not be enough to delay the game, but it could make the field and the ball slippery. The Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta does have a retractable roof, which could be closed come game time.
Who Is Predicted To Win the Peach Bowl Today?
Given how dominant the Indiana Hoosiers have been all season, and having already beaten Oregon a few weeks ago, they are coming in as the betting favorites with a spread of -3.5 and an over/under of 48.5.
Expect a high-scoring game, with Indiana to come out on top.
What Channel Is the Indiana vs Oregon Football Game?
