North Ark in Nov sounds nice.

Just looking for the best restaurant options and a sportsbar

I have been to Fayetteville (not on a gameday) and Auburn.

Can't go wrong with either of those. Can't speak for Gainesville.

Wat.

Auburn is the opposite of ghetto. If anything, we’re too stale and pale.

Don’t know about being a ghetto, but there’s not a lot to do there. Of course I’m comparing it to Athens.

Yeah, if anything, I’d say it’s a bit boring. I guess the positive spin on it is, it’s a quiet, small town.

I’ve never been to Gainesville for a game or Fayetteville at all, by the way. I’d love to visit both for a game someday.

Fayetteville NC if you can get on Bragg is nice. Outside that it has few redeeming qualities.

fayetteville........ arkansas has mtns, hiking, nice campus plus fayetteville is nice. Auburn is ok from what i heard havent been. Gainesville a dump but everyone knows that nothing to do there plus not even on the beach whats the point of living in florida if you arent near a beach.

Auburn probably. It will be foggy and rainy in Arkansas and Gainesville would be the place for you if you like strip malls

To me, it somewhat depends on where you are coming from and the time of year. November in Arkansas could be less than ideal (October is probably just right). September in Gainesville is to be avoided. You can fly to Fayetteville or Gainesville (though the airport at Gainesville is much smaller), but Auburn's an easy trip from ATL.

As far as things to do, Fayetteville wins that, as NW Arkansas is a much larger metro area than the other two. Gainesville probably has the least to offer.

All three in November would be fantastic.
