Ok I was just guessing since it’s over 8 hours but thanks for the update
I wonder if that means they'll head down a day early for those. Probably don't want to do a bit over 8 hours on the road on a bus the day before the game. Assuming a Saturday game, drive down Thursday, rest and work out on Friday, play the game on Saturday, then drive back on Sunday. Shorter drives could be done on Friday morning and early afternoon for a late afternoon workout probably, then probably drive back after the game on Saturday.meganeck wrote: Fri May 19, 2023 9:32 pmI read an article on the move and it said all the trips will be bus ridesleatherneckcountry wrote: Mon May 15, 2023 12:54 pmTennessee tech I would guess is a plane and if they they with the big south I’m guessing some of those will be plane rides.sealhall74 wrote: Mon May 15, 2023 12:21 pm Do you think all OVC conference game travel will now be by bus? MVFC and Summit, we always had quite a few plane rides (youngstown, denver, tulsa, fargo, ...)
Maybe with the savings, we can actually buy a bus although it probably takes a couple or three for big time programs.

I highly doubt we would come back on Sunday. I imagine we would drive back right after the game. That gets the kids back by at least super early am on Sunday.ST_Lawson wrote: Fri May 19, 2023 10:54 pmI wonder if that means they'll head down a day early for those.

I guess as long as the game ain’t at 6 because then you’re probably looking at getting back at 8am on SundayTere wrote:Thu Jan 01, 1970 4:55 amI highly doubt we would come back on Sunday.

Wow I just realized Eddie George is the HC at Tennessee State
Yup, and on September 2nd this fall, they’ll become Notre Dame’s first ever I-AA/FCS opponent.leatherneckcountry wrote:Wow I just realized Eddie George is the HC at Tennessee State
