Pittsburgh plays at Miami, the widest weather change of the week
Pittsburgh's home is typically 54° during a game around Oct. 24. Miami's is 79°. That 25° difference is the biggest this week. It comes from past games, not a forecast. Utah State at Texas State has the same size of gap.
5 of the 49 outdoor games we have a typical temperature for are played at 4,000 ft or higher.
Typical temperature for each game
One dot per outdoor game, at the typical temperature during a game at the home stadium. Open dots are stadiums at 4,000 ft or higher. The ringed dot is the game in the headline. Tap a dot to open its game.
Typical temperature is what the temperature usually runs during a game at that stadium around that date, from games played since 2016. The big number on each row is that figure at the home stadium. The bar runs from 20° to 100° and shades about 7 in 10 games, with a dark mark at the typical temperature and a gray mark at the visitor's own home. A game with its time to be set uses the same figure. Ranked teams come first, then notable games, then by name.

Baylor had the biggest weather swing last Saturday
TCU at Baylor was 54° during the game, 19° colder than the typical 73° here around Oct. 17.
18 of the 37 outdoor games with a reading ran 10° or more from their typical temperature on Oct. 17. These are conditions only.
The number on each row is the airport temperature during the game. The bar shows the typical range at that stadium, about 7 in 10 games, with a dark mark at the typical temperature and a round mark where the game landed. Up to 8 games at least 10° from their typical temperature are listed, largest first. This section leaves out scores and results.
Slate as of Oct. 23. Past games, not a forecast.
How this is measured
The typical temperature during the game is what the airport near the stadium usually reads during the three and a half hours after kickoff, in games played at that stadium within four weeks of the date since 2016. About 7 in 10 games land inside the range shown. It describes games already played. A stadium needs 20 games to appear, and the four-week window needs 15. This describes past games, not a forecast: for the forecast, see weather.gov.
The gap compares the stadium hosting the game with the visitor's own home stadium on the same date. It is shown only when both teams play at outdoor stadiums with enough games. Last Saturday compares each game's own airport reading with its typical temperature, and says nothing about the score. See typical temperature during the game in the glossary.
