    They are identical. You can verify on Google maps if you wish.

      probably would depend on traffic at that moment.

      Looks like I have tickets for the Wisconsin game (my parents fly out for their mission that Friday. Just need to drive 9 hours on Friday afternoon and then hop in the car immediately after the game is over to drive 9 hours to get back home. Still really want to do it despite all the driving.

        This would have been much better for that bowl game two years ago

        "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

          I watched the first quarter of that game in my wife's hospital room as we were picking up her and the boy a couple days after his birth. We watched the rest at home. My Ute BIL was bombarding me with snarky texts which ended abruptly midway through the second quarter. After that I kept sending him texts every 15 minutes or so saying I was busy tending to the baby and to please give me an update on the game. He didn't respond until it was over.

            215 has some construction going on though. I've avoided it this spring/summer. Not sure how it will be this fall. It might be wrapped up.

              I want to remind everyone of the value of having Omaha being at a BYU game against a team in red, and his dedication to getting there. http://www.cougarstadium.com/search....archid=2745426

                Just started checking prices to em-eye-crooked letter-crooked letter-eye-humpback-humback- eye. This game is going to cost me more than if I went to Hawaii. I may need to reconsider my plans.

                  Link doesn't work for me, but I'm assuming that is from the Nebraska game. I won't mention BYU's record at rivalry games I have attended

                      Given Art's level of education, I do think he's trying for Mississippi.

While flying into Jackson gets you closest to Starkville (2 hrs), it's also going to be more expensive. If it were me, I'd fly I to New Orleans a day or two early and hang out there. Memphis would be my second choice.

                          I screwed it up. I barely can type normal words on a keyboard. a stupid saying on tapatalk? Forget about it.

                          No one else has heard of that saying? My mom taught it to me when I was little. Though, considering she attended a single room school for a short time when she was young, falafel makes a valid point about my academic bonafides.

                              What are the chances of Harvey impacting the game next week? Since I'm driving back from Fort Lee the two days prior, I'm considering alternate routes based upon weather patterns.

                                It could definitely affect the game, especially since the system is so slow moving.
                                Power, structural damage, and impassible streets could remain issues, since it's gonna rain until Tuesday.
