I saw the temperature in columbus should be pretty low tonight, high 40s/50s. I think this might be a slight advantage for the buckeyes. Braxton is used to playing in colder weather, whereas Martinez is probably not since he is from California. Do you think this will be an advantage for us? I know last year was pretty warm, so there wasn't a lot of really cold games, whereas two years ago it got pretty cold. What do you think?

What is the weather like in Nebraska this time of year for comparison?
I'd like to think so, but probably not. Martinez has been playing in Nebraska for a few years now - I'm sure he's well acclimated to this weather.

I don't think the weather will affect either quarterback. It will be cool tonight in Cbus but not freezing or wet so the playing field is even. Martinez has been a QB at Nebraska for 3 years now so he has played in cold weather at least a few times. The advantage for tOSU is the atmosphere for a night game at The Shoe so the fans better get loud!
Cold weather doesn't give either team an advantage. They both play in cold weather, Nebraska is colder.
Agree with Steensn its colder in Nebreska. I think home field should be the advantage. Actually tonight is almost perfect football weather.
I doubt weather provides either team an advantage.

^^^^ Jimminy Cricket!!!! Super Sorry SHOWTHEMOHIOISHERE, went to "up vote" your post and accidentally "down voted " it.
Any Mod able to fix my mistake?
Awesome graph! I don't think it will provide either team an advantage, especially considering they run similar offenses.
Great graph - nice to see. Thanks!

@ Showthem
Nice graph, thanks for posting. +1
Agree -- looks very even. It should be a very balanced matchup, weather should have no impact.
I don't even think -5 degree weather would affect Taylor Martinez shotputting throwing motion.
Don't give up... Don't ever give up.
He isn't a true freshman or anything playing in his first game. He plays for Neraska not Arizona, lol come on dude this is silly. A 50 degree night won't make any difference on the performance tonight.
