[QUOTE="Tech Lawyer, post: 959284, member: 5229"] I saw the Dawgs get blown out in 2016 (Kirby's first year.) I stayed in a cheap hotel in Tupelo. It seemed like it took at least 1.5 hours to get to Oxford. Parking was an adventure. We parked on some neighborhood street at least two miles from the stadium. It hadn't rained in 3 weeks and the temperature must have been 98 degrees. The Grove that day reminded me of a rich people version of the Chattahoochee River race in 1979. It was sweaty, sticky and there were a lot of intoxicated people. But the thing I remember most on the logistics side was on the drive from Tupelo to Oxford there was absolutely no homes, no people or anything else on that highway. There may have been one small town (on the outskirts of Oxford) where I bought some chicken fingers. Otherwise that road made Highway 16 (vintage 1975) look like I 285. No wonder when someone once asked Coach Bobby Dodd why he never scheduled the Mississippi schools, his reply was simple. "Why in the hell would we want to go to Mississippi?" When you travel down that road, you will agree with Coach Dodd. [/QUOTE]
