Thanks, Jim. We need good crowds to come out and support the team!

Love that the BC game is at 12:30 and on TV. I don't know what time the lots will be open for the other two, but if we are lucky we'll be firing up our grills at 8am..I'm ready to tailgate!!!

I am also psyched about the time of the BC game - I have tickets for this game and the 12:30pm kickoff is perfect for my kids. For Boston-area Duke fans: tickets are available for this game via the BC ticket office. Go Duke!

I'm ready for some football. I'll be in Wallace Wade for the Stanford game on Sept. 10. I was hoping for a night game, but a 3:30 pm kick-off is okay as it provides plenty of time for pregame tailgating festivities.

And post game celebration.

As CB&B said above, Brunchgate will get fired up 7 plus hours before kickoff and the post game (celebration) festivities will last for at least 2 hours after the game. No need to fight traffic or worry about getting dinner anywhere else, Bob!
