Draw ElTejan a picture and he still doesn't get that come September deep south SEC players will be just as acclimated to tejas heat (if not more) than donghorn players.

That tejas heat ain't gonna bother them deep south SEC boys.

Someone from the Northeast, Wyoming, Utah, Pacific NW, sure.

I remember Tom Osborne lobbying the university to let the team travel to the Orange Bowl 2 weeks early so they could acclimate to the heat and humidity of Miami (IN DECEMBER). It was cold and dry up here, and they'd been losing NC games to the likes of Miami and FSU who were used to the environment. Getting there 3 or 4 days prior to the game wasn't time for the Huskers to acclimate.

Going 2 weeks early paid off.
the bama fans were complaining about the weather in Austin last September.. They were lucky..it was actually cooler than normal

I’m not even a Bama fan and I bitch about the heat. “Heat advisory in effect from 11:00 am until November 2nd.”

Has been cooler the last couple of days though.
 
What's it gonna be in August fall camp?

Tuscaloosa's "average" high in August is 92°. That's not counting "heat index" from humidity.

Average humidity in August for Tuscaloosa is 73%. The average humidity for Austin in August is just 59%.

It's you who needs to take a seat, dunce.

In before the dirt farmer mentions humidity


LOL

What about it? Here's an official chart for you regarding Heat Index and an explanation of why Humidity plays a major role in it.

What is the heat index?


"It's not the heat, it's the humidity". That's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both. The heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. This has important considerations for the human body's comfort. When the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. If the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature. Evaporation is a cooling process. When perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature. When the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of evaporation from the body decreases. In other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.

In my example I referred to "August fall camp". i.e. What they'll be practicing in. What temperatures they'll be conditioning for once the season opens September 1st.

Tuscaloosa average August humidity = 73%
Austin average August humidity = 59%

In your example you used September 1st high temperatures. OK

In 2022

Austin = 93°
Tuscaloosa = 92°

Using the Weather.gov provided Heat Index (feels like) chart...

That 93° in Austin felt like appx 107°
That 92° in Tuscaloosa felt like appx 114°


As I stated Alabama players (and the rest of the deep south players) will be just as (if not more than) acclimated to Austin heat as tejas players come September.

So predictable, Goober.

Say you can't figure out NOAA's chart without saying you can't figure out NOAA's chart.

FFS A teacher could teach a 6th grade class about Heat Index using what NOAA and the NWS provided. On the test they would ask...

Using the Heat Index Chart provided, what is the Heat Index when the Temperature is 96° and the Relative Humidity is 70%?

A. 96°
B. 70°
C. 126°
D. 100°


The vast majority of the class would look at the chart and answer "C".

Of course there's always a couple of dunces in the class (like you and ElTejan) that would answer "A" or "B".

:dhd:

All Texans understand the concept of heat index. It’s a thing here. I’m mocking you and your predictably pretentious commentary. I knew you couldn’t help yourself, Clavin.
 
Austin averages in September (i.e. college football season) per NOAA.

Austin Average Temperature = 90°

Austin Average Humidity = 68%

Using the fancy NOAA Heat Index chart (that 96% of a 6th grade students could figure out).

Austin's average September Heat Index = 104°

Given Bama players practiced through August fall camp at 90° and 73% humidity, that's a Heat Index of 107°

Bama and other deep south players are already acclimated to that 104° Austin Heat Index.

Early September is diff then late. You’re gonna die here in early Sept

"It's a thing" damn near everywhere across the Plains, Midwest, and Southeast.

Particularly in SEC country where they get high temperatures and high humidity from the Gulf.

If ElDumbo would have used the Utah Utes as an an example of a team that would struggle in Austin due to heat, he'd have made a valid point.

August average Salt Lake City temperature = 92°
August average Salt Lake City humidity = 39%
August average Salt Lake City 'Heat Index' = 93°


Nope ElDumbo used SEC teams. :dhd:

Is the SEC ready for TEXAS HEAT on a consistent basis?

LOL. You mean like September 1st - 10th?

You know "Early September" follows August right?

Bama players will have just come out of August two-a-days at an average Heat Index of 107°. They're conditioned/acclimated to what they'll feel in Austin, as will the other deep south SEC teams.

Are you also factoring in that.....

"Nobody Underachieves Like tejas. NOBODY".
