If anyone is interested, yes there is Amtrak service from Austin and San Antonio to Baton Rouge. If I was traveling to a game, this is something I would definitely look into.
GAME WEEK – #7 Texas at #24 LSU
- Thread starter Sirhornsalot
- Start date
It's about a 7 hour drive.
It will be interesting to see what happens.
One option is take a bus halfway tonight, stop at a hotel. Obviously a last minute logistical nightmare.
Seems like a huge disadvantage for stranded visiting teams. Maybe they will delay the games to Sunday or Monday?
What a mess.

The stoppage has been lifted. I'm sure Texas was using a chartered flight anyway. It should still be available.

FAA lifts nationwide ground stop that disrupted thousands of flights, White House says no indication of "nefarious act"
The rare nationwide ground stop lasted about five hours Friday. Sources told CBS News an update to the network connecting the air traffic control system caused a reboot, crash and outage.

Bet his attitude would reverse if ou was flying
With ground stopage lifted , it's going to take a long time to get things back to normal.
I'm definitely not suggesting it, but I wonder if TX considered a similar move.
Seems like a good strategy for Ole Miss, but not a good look.

I doubt it. Hell the SEC would probably have told Texas to get there or forfeit. No way are they postponing a night game between these two teams in Death Valley.
Perhaps, although it's hard to understand why they wouldn't have given Ole Miss that same ultimatum.
It seems like Ole Miss said we aren't going to make it to Norman for a Saturday game. Instead of telling Ole Miss to show up or forfeit, they rescheduled.

SEC is not going to tell those teams show up or forfeit. It is called $$$$.
Money certainly drives lots of CFB decisions, but the SEC held enough power to force Ole Miss to show up.
what happens if a team doesn't show up for a scheduled game? You would think that they would tell the team that if you don't show up, then you have to pay for the lost revenue plus a hefty fine out of your next SEC check.
Given that ultimatum, it's hard to believe Ole Miss wouldn't have shown up.
