Chik Filet IMHO... I already got my tix. Local game for me. I have no desire to go to any of the other destinations you mention.

I'll road trip to Auburn for the Georgia game and probably one other. Would love to go to the corndogger game but will be out of town on family business that weekend.

Definitely Vandy. Nashville has a lot of fun stuff to do, and with us rotating 1 slot between six teams it'll be a heck of while before you can see Vandy again. You'll be able to go to Ole Miss or MSU in another two seasons.

Depends on your priorities. If an exciting football game is all that matters, then hit up the State game. If you want a mini-vacation, or want to visit all SEC stadiums eventually, go to Vandy. If you want to watch auburn dominate and drink copious amounts of alcohol, go to ole miss.

Have you already recieved your AU-Clemson tix? I ordered mine a few weeks back and got lower level seats. I haven't gotten them in the mail yet though.

NO I have not gotten my tix in the mail yet. Beginning to bug me a little, but we still have time.

I say above "I already got my tix"...thats misleading. I already BOUGHT them. I have not received them yet.

You had me nervous for a minute. Was afraid I was gonna have to start making phone calls and raise hell. I expect they'll come around the first week of August.

I haven't seen Vandy, but I liked Nashville from the small amount of time I spent there. Would like to check it again.

What really surprised me when I recently went to Nashville was how little fan support they had in their own city. Vandy merch was grossly outnumbered by UT merch most everywhere I went.

Its a very tough to get in private school in a country music city.

I'm not all that surprised.

Since you are already going to the others, I assume your question is about these three. None of them are worth the trip, really, unless you are just going to see the game and support your team. In that case, the game in Starkville should be the best and closest one, where your team will most need your support.

Nashville for sure. Even State's fans don't want to go to Starkville

You should come to Tuscaloosa for the Bama Auburn game so that you can see what a real team looks like in person.

Edited: just say where you said you had tickets already

I'd go to Ole Miss, a lot of hot coeds and a nice campus.Frick Miss. State those cowbells are horrible.

Are you going for game experience or for the city experience?

of those 3, if you are going for the game experience I would go to the state game. It won't be a like the other two.

If that's not the case, the obvious answer is Nashville. Great city. I travel there for work, so I'm there often and always have a great time.

The Vandy game day experience leaves much to be desired, and the fans are annoyingly pompous. If you want to go to a cool city, however, this is the game for you.

I enjoyed my experience at State, but I'm not itching to go back. The game will be the best of the three.
