You should check out Ohio State vs Michigan or Ohio State Vs Penn State.

No games could be more irrelevant.

Those games probably won't be played during the time period that he stated that he will be visiting.

On a side note, it's too bad that most of the games played in the Big Ten and SEC's 100,000-seat stadiums during the time that he is visiting will likely not be very good games.

@ PortcityTiger - LSU is my dream destination, but more then 10 hours is a little too long for the missus . In The Netherlands that equals at almost driving to Spain.
But to get back at LSU. The Stadium, the fans, the noise, the atmosphere against other teams(fans) is equal to my favorite hometown team of Feyenoord(always rank in the top 10 for fanatic soccer fans in the world) in soccer so it's something I would really like to experience in college football!!

@ everyone - here in The Netherlands we learn Dutch, English, German and French in high school. so we learn a lot of different languages, but I have to admit only Dutch(of course) and English stick with me. German i speak a little, and french..hmmm i dont know anymore then Taxi and menage a trois

LSU is overrated. Trust me on this, their fans leave after the first half Unless they are playing Alabama.

Clearly you are a Bama alter. Either way, he can't drive through fricking snow storms and shite to go see those meaningless Big 10 games.

Calling the best rivalry game in college football meaningless hahaha. Everything doesn't revolve around the SEC m8.

Ohio State v Michigan is great. But I think AU v Alabama is better. I think LSU v Alabama is better. I think Florida v Georgia is better. If I couldn't make those three, I would consider Ohio State v Michigan.

Yankee football < SEC football. (there are at least 4 SEC rival games better than the Mich. rivalry game)

It will be easier to find something after the coming season gets underway.

My daughter actually dates a guy from the Netherlands. Went to school at Utrecht, I believe.
I can't remember what town he is from, though. I'll have to ask her.

That's a coincedence! I worked in the city next to Utrecht, smalller city Bunnik!

Yes, I know that's easier after the season starts. But I was looking forward to ideas and stories about college football weekends!

Bring your national team's orange - it's as close to our orange as I've ever seen. You'll fit right in at Neyland which is a must visit for any CFB fan. By 2015 we're expecting very good things although I haven't looked at the schedule for 2015 UGA and SC should be home games. A night game at Neyland is pretty awesome as is seeing the Vol Navy and our pregame setup.

Tennessee is right up there on our bucket list. I also think tennessee is on their way back, while 2015 my be a year early for that. I can dream the words from rocky top and if there's a way I can watch a Tennessee game I always make sure to hit my "I will give my all for Tennessee today" sign! Who i bought from someone from volnation.

Bad news is that for my honeymoon Knoxville is a little too far to drive..so i'm probably will not make that trip in 2015.
