This can be SEC or Non-Conference, let's hear it I think Ole Miss plays Georgia two seasons from now in Athens and I can't wait.

Maybe 08 ASU just because of the novelty of it. New city, new state, new stadium, basically a fun little mini-vacation.

Mine was recent.

Oxford this year. Have friends with a son going to school there, so we rented a nice house through VRBO or something. Enjoyed the square the night before (even with the rather obnoxious and cocky Ole Miss fans jeering every move...act like you've been there before at some point please), experienced the shock of the cocky Ole Miss fans with the 4th and 25 miracle (classic disbelief) and had a great dinner out after the game (with no Ole Miss fans hassling us not even one bit).

Oxford is a crappy little town, but we had some decent food and a great place to stay.

Scratch all that...the best road trip is to LSU if you stay in New Orleans...and why the hell would anyone stay in Baton Rouge?

UGA is usually the more eventful road trip because of their aggressive fans (especially when we beat them in 2007), so probably that one.

Lexington this year. Had a great trip, toured some bourbon distillers before the game. Went to Keeneland the day after for horse racing. Stopped at the Kentucky Horse Park on Saturday.

From your perspective, how would you describe the atmosphere of the day prior to the game? Obviously once we started getting whooped the air went out of the building, but leading up to yalls first TD, how would you rate the atmosphere? I've been to a loooot of games and I think that was one of the craziest, more intense atmospheres I've ever witnessed leading up to kick.

The Rose Bowl is truly a magnificent place to see a football game.

New Orleans in January 2012, and it's not even close.

I had a lot of fun in Oxford in 2014 despite the loss. I have a lot of good friends who are Ole Miss grads, and most of the fans I met were cool. Pretty much the opposite of most Ole Miss posters on this site.

Athens always has a good atmosphere as far as rivalry is concerned. Being from Augusta the Border Bash is always intense. Going to the hedges is pretty far up the list.
