Couple of things that may help you all. I live 1.5 hours from Boone in a place called Kingsport TN.

Allegiant flies direct from Orlando and Tampa into Tri-Cities airport (the one in Kingsport). From there it is an hour and half drive. It is a beautiful drive.

You can also fly Allegiant to Knoxville or Asheville. Either drive will be about the same. If you fly Knoxville come sped some of your money in Kingsport on the way through.

Before buying tickets on stubhub you need to call the university ticket office. I got 12 tickets at face value no problem. I am a season ticket holder and hurricane club member so that may have something to do with that.

If you've got any questions about the area let me know. Amazing outdoor activities to do everywhere.

04 I live in Bristol let me know if you guys are down for tailgating!

I live back across the line in VA, just about an hour away from both of you. I'll be in Boone, Charlottesville, and maybe Atlanta this Fall. Give me a yell if you guys want to meet up.

Same.. I'm 100% down. I planned on driving up the night before and getting up and tailgating. I'll have my UM cornhole boards, grill, beer, and flying my UM flag in the back of my truck for sure. I'll let you all know where come game time if anyone is interested in joining. Probably be me and my buddy and whoever else wants to join
 
We lost to cinci last year. This is a very losable game with Alfraud the coach. I think we'll learn a lot about the staff in this game

I remember about this time last year this board saw that Cinci game as a trap game and we knew the whole time. When Bush had to miss the first half for that targeting penalty I had a feeling it was going to be bad.

I don't think this game is as much of a trap and Cinci was last year, but if we go in feeling sorry for ourselves because we have to play them at their place... we won't win by much if at all. I don't see Richt letting that happen but we'll see.

You're going to learn about the staff playing App State? They don't have a guy on that team that UM offered a scholarship. It's embarrassing that UM fans have been relegated to putting any stock in games like this.

Not going to be a popular opinion, but...

The University of Miami should NOT be playing away games at APP State or Toledo. We shouldn't need to.

Any other P5 big names playing in their stadiums? Didn't think so.

Hopefully Richt will put an end to this ****. We play at Toledo next year :monkey-serious:

It's the AD who makes the scuedule not the head coach.

The only reason we are playing uf in 2019 is because of coach Mac at uf. I can guarantee Blake James will run potential matchups by Richt before scheduling them. Do you think it's any coincidence that Rutgers got scheduled when golden was the coach?

I don't even know if we should be playing these types of team period especially not on the road.

Yup, these are the type of games Al would go super finesse and make his own life a living ****, I have zero doubts that coach Richt will line up in double tights and run for 300 on these dudes, it will be the thing we will love about richt he won't try to out scheme inferior teams, he will ramrod them to the death, unlike Al and randy who thought they were in a belicheck-pete carroll coaching showdown vs FCS teams

Did cinci have any guys we offered? App st is really good for their conference. Should we lose? No but as I said this kinda game has been very losable with alfraud if we go out and handle them easily like we should it will signal that we won't be playing down to opponents

I don't think this game will tell you chit about our team if we win. It will tell you about the AD and the athletic department but it won't tell you about our team. If Richt can't win this game, it will be a long season.

If we win by less than 31 or 35 it'll tell us something. Otherwise no.
