The. High. This doesn’t count wind-chill factor, which will have things feeling like minus-40 or minus-50. But really once you’re talking minus-40, what’s another 10 degrees?We of course wouldn’t recommend anyone going outside during these bitterly frigid times. But it did get us to thinking — what’s the coldest temperatures played in by Wisconsin sports teams?The Green Bay Packers played in arguably the most famous cold-weather game of all time, the 1967 NFC Championship at Lambeau Field on Dec. 31, 1967 vs. Dallas, otherwise known as “The Ice Bowl.” The temperature on that day was minus-13 degrees, the record low — by a big margin — for any NFL game.In fact, according to pro-football-reference, there have been only nine games in the NFL which have been played at 0 degrees or lower (not including wind chill) since the AFL-NFL merger in 1966, and the Packers have been involved in four of them:— The Ice Bowl (a 21-17 Green Bay win Dean Lowry Jersey White , by the way, in case you’ve forgotten.)— Dec. 10, 1972 at Minnesota: minus-2 degrees (Packers won, 23-7)— Jan. 20, 2008 vs. the New York Giants in the NFC Championship: minus-1. (The Giants won 23-20 in overtime and Tom Coughlin’s face is still beet red.)— Dec. 26, 1993 vs. Oakland: zero degrees (Packers won, 28-0).In addition, Green Bay has played two games at Chicago where the temperatures were 0.5 (Dec. 18, 1983) and 0.7 (Dec. 10, 1978). The Packers lost both of those games. Green Bay has played in four other games in which the temperature was three degrees or lower — and lost each one. The Packers are 8-11 in games played at 10 degrees or colder since 1966 (caveat: with the known available data).The Wisconsin Badgers haven’t played in temperatures under 10 degrees recently. On Nov. 15, 2014, the temperature at gametime against Nebraska was 26 degrees, which was the coldest at Camp Randall Stadium in 50 years (11 degrees on Nov. 21 http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-jake-ryan-jersey , 1964, a win over Minnesota). By the way, that Nebraska game was game Melvin Gordon rushed for a then-NCAA record 408 yards.The year previous to that, the Badgers played against Minnesota at TCF Bank Stadium with the temperature at 18 degrees, the coldest game at the time in the short history of the Gophers’ home.The Badgers’ men’s hockey team has played in three outdoor games, but none were as chilly as that 2014 football contest.In 2016, Wisconsin played Ohio State in the Frozen Tundra Classic at Lambeau Field. Game time temp: A downright balmy 28 degrees.Four years later, the Badgers hosted the Camp Randall Classic against Michigan where it was 21 degrees. In 2013, Wisconsin was in Chicago at Soldier Field against Minnesota for the Hockey City Classic; the temperature there was also 28. Wisconsin won all three of those contests.Finally, there’s the Milwaukee Brewers, who have played exactly one game below freezing (again, without wind chill) in their history, according to baseball-reference. That occurred April 5 Womens Oren Burks Jersey , 1994 when it was 31 degrees at County Stadium for Milwaukee’s game against Oakland (there was also a 29-mile per hour wind).The Brewers have had five other games between 33-35 degrees, three of which were in Milwaukee (April 10, 1994, April 10, 2000 and April 7, 1997) plus one in both Toronto (April 16 ,1980) and Cincinnati (April 4, 2000).Of course, in 1973 a snowstorm delayed Milwaukee’s home opener until April 13. Although there were still snow on the streets, County Stadium was cleared of the white stuff and the Brewers beat the Baltimore in 38-degree weather, 2-0.This year the Brewers open the 2019 season at home on March 28. Here’s where we all say, “Thank goodness for the roof on Miller Park.” Seattle Seahawks center Justin Britt was in a terrific mood after Thursday night’s 27-24 win over the Green Bay Packers. Nevertheless, he wanted to share some thoughts on what he felt were officiating issues in the game and throughout the season as a whole in the locker room after the game.The Seahawks were called for four false starts in the first 21 minutes of the game with three of the four false starts coming from the offensive line. They were add a fifth false start penalty in the fourth quarter as well.After George Fant was called for their fourth false start six minutes into the second quarter Brett Favre Jersey , Britt made an immediate beeline toward head referee Tony Corrente to say that the Packers were simulating their offensive line calls along their defensive front.“I don鈥檛 think it鈥檚 legal what they were doing, but it鈥檚 neither here nor there. We won. They lost,” Britt said before expounding further.“I鈥檓 going to say this, I feel like the NFL and the referees should do a better job when it comes to hands to the face. They put an emphasis on it but they never call it. I think they need to review that and start calling those. I think they need to start calling holding on the teams we鈥檙e playing, the offensive line that we鈥檙e playing. I feel like we try to be technique-oriented up front and dominate in that way but I feel like other teams you just see them holding all the time. You saw a bunch today. We got a win. We鈥檙e going to start a streak, but those are a couple thoughts on my head.”Added left tackle Duane Brown regarding the false starts: “Their defense was moving around quite a bit and making calls during our cadence and guys just kind of got a little anxious. So we just had to focus, just calm down a little bit and that鈥檚 what happened. It was tough at the beginning of the game because it鈥檚 tough to ask guys to not do that the way it was happening. It wasn鈥檛 as easy as not moving. In the middle of the cadence, guys are barking out calls and guys can鈥檛 hear and they think it鈥檚 (Russell Wilson). It was tough but we found a way to overcome it.”The Seahawks had to go to a silent count in their own stadium at times in an effort to counter the call outs from the Packers front and the abnormal strength of the opposing support from away fans on Thursday night.Britt was again upset about an uncalled hands to the face late in the game by Packers defensive lineman Tyler Lancaster.“You name a number any week and they probably do it,” Britt said of the hands to the face non-call. “There was quite a few times it happened tonight. I鈥檓 not going to complain more than this. I really don鈥檛 care but someone has to say it.”Wilson’s illegal forward pass on an attempted later at the end of the first half was the only penalty Seattle had that wasn’t a false start. They finished with six penalties for 30 yards. The Packers had fewer penalties (five), but they were biggest infractions. A holding that negated a 53-yard kickoff return by Trevor Davis, and 48-yard pass interference call against Raven Greene accounted for most of their 80 penalty yards.
