Last minute ticket...Nashville bound.

I apologize for the lack of coverage for the Music City Bowl. Hopefully Mike Brown, a Clemson grad student, will get on this sometime tomorrow before kickoff like he was supposed to!

Good news out there, however, is that I've managed to unsuspectingly get a ticket at the last minute and will be heading down to Nashville despite having to work until 3:30 in Lexington. I plan to pack up before going to work at 10:30, then I will leave work at 3:30 and head straight to Nashville in time to make the 8:30 kickoff. I already conveniently have Monday as an off day to travel back.

I will have a key waiting for me at the Days Inn, just a short walk away from LP Field. I will then be meeting some friends right in the seats in the lower level endzone of Section 145. This will be my 3rd straight bowl game that I have attended and the 2nd one at LP Field in Nashville. I did not attend the last matchup with Clemson in 2006, but attended the Florida State game in 2007 and the Liberty Bowl last season in Memphis.

I will be giving a full analysis of the whole trip and experience of hopefully what will become the Cats' fourth straight bowl win. This would be the Cats' most impressive bowl win yet under Rich Brooks. They face a Clemson team that was just a win shy from the Orange Bowl if they had won the ACC Championship. They also face potentially the nation's best running back, in CJ Spiller. I will be bringing my new digital camera as well and bring the game to you straight from my seat and all around Nashville!
