What are your plans for the Illini game?

[JJ Husker]

I’ll be watching at home with my wife and son. Got 2 whole fresh buffalo tenderloins today so at some point on Saturday going to carve off 2 or 3 filets which I’ll grill and going to try smoking the rest of it. Saving the 2nd one for a little later in the season. I am excite about the tenderloins…..and the game too. Also got a new bloody mary mix (Real Dill) gonna try. Bloodys are kind of my game day morning thing.

I’m guess the usually- grilled jalapeños, home made blue cheese, wings with a ghost sauce option, need something else- not sure 

 

oh yeah, Irish coffees galore.

I think going to Oklahoma Cornhusker Club in Tulsa.    But I debate because of the rise of covid in the area.

I sort of wish we had picked this as our road game now.  The atmosphere was great last time and with the students getting back on campus I imagine it will be a blast this weekend.

Is Norman going to be your road game this year?

Yeah.

 

Should be a good time but I wish it was kicking off a little later.  11am games that end up being a blowout are not much fun.

My bloody consumption has skyrocketed with all these 11 and noon kicks.

Yep. Can’t do bloodys after about 1pm but we’ve had a lot of 10am (mountain time) and 11am kicks. I didn’t like them at first (the early kickoff times, not the bloodys ) but I don’t mind them now.

Are you already sick of hearing boomer sooner?   If you're lucky they’ll roll the schooner while you’re there.  I’ve never been inside that stadium but have been up close on the outside. The endzone seating seemed to be really steep. 

[krc1995]

Only five total this Saturday. All eyes on us in the marquee 12pm slot.

My daughter has an 11 AM U8 soccer game so I'll be at that.   Not sure if I'll use that as a warmup to yell at refs and get belligerent

Gonna be there with the wife.  I don't know.  Am excited still but not as for some reason.  It's been a weird week in Huskerland.  

 

At this point wherever I am it would be really really cool if we came out and actually played well and got the W.  Thinking it would go a loong ways even against an unranked Illinois.

 

 

 

I'll be there. Never been to Champaign before so not sure what to expect. 

[teachercd]

So, the kickoff is now 12:20?

 

Also, Champaign is a blast!

 

The bars open early for the Greek houses that rent them out and then they open to the public.  Joe's Pub is a great time.

 

Hit up the Grange Grove, in front of the stadium, it is just a huge tailgate area.  Something NU could never pull off because the space is just so different around the stadium.

Currently looking for some where in Houston for a Watch party. Most likely be sitting at the house watching.
