Grenada is too far away, probably 80 miles away. I drive through there driving from Tupelo back home to Louisiana. A lot of people stay in Memphis, Batesville would be good just to sleep in, no restaurants,etc. The best place is Tupelo, 53 miles away, all 4-lane now. Tupelo has every motel and restaurant you could need. Most north of town in the mall area. The football team stays in Tupelo at the Hilton. I always greet them at the airport every two years when they fly in. There's only about 5 of us LSU people that live in Tupelo and wlecome them here. I saw Ruban Randle and Josh Downs from my hometown once. They bus over to the game.

Grenada is 45-50 min

Oxford in a nice place but small. I would call it quaint. There are a few hotels but they are likely booked as said.

Batesville is 25-30 from campus. Nothing to do there but the Holiday and Comfort Inns are good. There are a few Basic Resturaunts.

Warning: the hotel price within 75 miles doubles on game weekends.

ETA..+1 Tupelo. Its a little father from LA but nice place.

as tupelo says, Grenada is too far from oxford to drive after a game...and there is only one hotel there that I would consider and it will be booked every weekend during football season...
