It's hard to predict with the 2:30 kickoff but I'd give it a good hour, hour & a half, as the bridge traffic can stack up at any time. Same with regards to a wreck over the Basin. Archie WHO???

The earlier you leave the less traffic. Honestly. For night games, if I leave after lunch, the traffic is usually crappy starting at Lobdell.

If you take 190 in BR to 110 it will be smooth with no delays almost guaranteed. You'll just drive an extra 20 miles.

Lafayette to BR


Travel it every home game. We never leave Laffy after about 8:00 for a 2:30 game. Best make it even earlier than that. Once it starts backing up, it'll be the Nicholson exit on the bridge, and Nicholson into campus.

Just like they say, leave early.

just like the others say, if you leave by 8 you will be fine, the closer to game time the more backed up it gets as you get into Lobdell. If there is a wreck on the Basin you are screwed. If for some reason there is a wreck, get off in Whiskey Bay, and go North to Krotz Springs and get on 190.

STFU. The masses don't need to know about the lack of traffic on the Old Bridge

If you wanna get there with time to tailgate, I'd leave around 9 or 9:30. You never know when some idiot is gonna wreck on the basin.

I make this trek every game. As long as you leave abt 5-6 hrs before kickoff you won't hit any traffic(barring some kind of accident)... Since game is at 2:30, leave before 9 or 10 and you should be fine.
