Don't mind an 11am start. The only conference away game where I can drive to the game and back home the same day!!

Yikes, I thought it was brutal! The field was frozen so hard it looked like the players were playing on a skating rink. Neither line could get a push.
It was worse because we had had snow and the sun came out that day and turned it to ice.

I generally have to work in the cold so I was used to being around it. The only part that got me was standing in snow and ice. If I can keep my feet off that stuff, I am in good shape.
I have since learned to bring in some cardboard to put your feet on. My mates made fun of me when I did it for a cold weather game but they were thanking me that I brought a long enough piece for all of us by game's end.

Last time we played there, 75% of the seatbacks were not used. I think they may have been installed just to make it look on TV like there are more people in attendance.

There won't be an 11:00 FS1 window that day.

It has the smell of either 6:00 FS1 or morning/afternoon ESPN+.
What's Baylor game smell like to you? Wondering because of soccer/flag football I have in the AM and wouldn't make a 11AM kick.

Well, we should know for sure next Monday (12th) but I figure it'll largely depend on which combination of teams are 2-0 after this weekend. Any 2-0/2-0 matchup would move up the ladder.

Baylor (at BYU)
Iowa State (at Iowa)

Kansas State (vs Missouri)
Oklahoma (vs Kent State)

Texas (vs Alabama)
Texas Tech (vs Houston)

Tickets will be cheap, I might go down as I haven't been to an away game since the K-State disaster a few years ago.

If it is a night game, is it a decent area to tailgate at?
It's ok, where the stadium is it's a lot more like Iowa City (if there were 10% of the people) tailgating in parking lots and yards. We've gone a few times. There's an apartment complex east of the stadium that had a bathroom in the laundry room people were able to use. There are a few empty lots north of the stadium (along Maine Street it looks like?) that we parked in more than once and had a bunch of other Iowa State fans around.
