Eggggzactly! Drivin Hwy 49 in & of itself is dangerous enough with all the wrecks, but add late night drivin & its a recipe for disaster. Guess hotel'ing it or bumming it on a friends couch in H-Burg that I didn't know I had will be in the works.

This is a hell of a lot better than 90+ degree heat and 90% humidity.

Would you take a different highway home if the game started at 7 or 8 instead of 9?

Exactly, on Labor Day weekend give me a 9 p.m. kickoff over a morning or afternoon kickoff anytime.

I didn't even realize it was Labor Day weekend. That's even less reason to complain. Plenty of time to recuperate.

I was thinking about going but getting home at 4 or 5 in the morning is a non-starter.

Really Clark?

Well my family is close enough it doesn't matter the start. Personally I like it for a holiday game. But understand people driving a long distance may have issues. If you plan of renting a room look at the rooms right off 49 on Classic Drive or on Hwy 98 right off of I-59. Some of the hotels on 49 from I-59 to the university are getting a bit of a reputation although are cheaper.

I think it's good. Everybody can dove hunt in the morning and afternoon and have time to get good and sauced before kickoff.
Those of us that won't be able to attend the game anyway should be ok with it.

I'll be ok with it as long as we have a big enough lead so I can go to sleep at a decent time. Geezers can't stay up late.

Why would this bother anyone?

Makes it a 10 PM Kick .. too many commercials .. am tempted to record and get up early Sun morning and watch before Church.

Shoot, who am I kidding .. I know the adrenaline will be pumping .. I just will have to lean out the Beer-to-game schedule a little to compensate for the later start.

Just made hotel reservations for Saturday. FYI, no Hilton family rooms left, but Choice Hotels have plenty, and the game night rates have not been put in place yet. And yes, libations will flow with a DD. I have the oldest and the youngest at MSU. The middle one is on scholarship at USM. But, he is still a Bulldog with a cowbell on the Burg campus!

The point IS it's a late start! I live the same place you do.

When was the last time we had a late kick off like this within a central time zone state?

The Ole Miss-Texas game in Oxford had a really late kick, but I don't think it was this late.....seems like it was at 8:30 or 8:45 though.
