I’ll be there, me and 10 thousand of my rowdy friends!

Go Bucks! I love the Austin campus and atmosphere, can’t wait!

@Hank South forgot about this thread and is just posting new threads like 100’s at the club.

Sounds like College GameDay will be at Clemson v LSU to kick off the season 

…

as they should be 

Maybe LSU can rise above mediocre this year, but I have big doubts about Son of Clem.

I would love to. Thank you for the heads up!

My wife and I have been to Austin before, and loved it.

We went to Barton Springs Pool, saw the bats come out from under the bridge, etc. if there’s any other must sees let me know!

Those are some good ones for sure. Mt. Bonnell is always nice in the morning to hike up and just getting out and about around town lake on the trail or greenbelt near Barton springs is fun for sure. We live out in Marble Falls on Lake LBJ and it’s definitely a beautiful area, plus blue bonnet cafe for pie. Always fun to go check out all the BBQ around and Salt Lick is an experience (though not the best BBQ around IMHO).

I don’t know if this is popular with the locals (or if it’s just popular with out of towners) but we went to Terry Black’s BBQ I think it was. That was amazing!

As of now, we plan on going to The Comedy Mothership for a show on Friday night, followed by dinner and drinks next door at Iron Cactus

Nice!! Terry Black’s is good stuff for sure!! Great story about family splitting up and rivalry between brothers and cousins. The original Black’s versus Terry Black’s. For my money Micklethwait BBQ is my favorite https://www.craftmeatsaustin.com/

Iron Cactus is OK, but try Polvos, or Curras or Habaneros.  Sauzon is good too.

I'm so happy we don't have Big Noon Kickoff in the SEC.

Agree! Polvos is my fave personally, the original on S. 1st. El Rancho is definitely a great spot too.

Can’t wait for y’all to come back to Texas. Last time you saw Barton Springs and the bats - adorable. This year we’re upgrading you to the full Texas package: queso that will spiritually challenge you, heat that will physically challenge you, and a stadium atmosphere loud enough to make you forget how to spell ‘Buckeye.’ We’ll show you the sights, the food, and at least one guy walking a goat on South Congress. Welcome back to the big leagues

Ha, I don’t know what any of this means but I’m excited to find out!

I’m in the minority, but I don’t mind Big Noon. Due to what I’m sure is going to be a very hot day in Austin, I am also relieved the SEC doesn’t have Big Noon

[Jeff Howe]

Can someone explain to me why the Big 12 thought it would be a good idea to schedule Texas Tech and TCU on Thanksgiving?

Texas tried to start that tradition with both of them. Nobody cared.

You don't want Big Noon in Austin in the middle of September. Literally, people could easily die. 125 on the field with 110k people. Bad combo.
