Coming from LA....take I-85 through the heart of Atlanta and stay on I-85 towards South Carolina outside the perimeter (I-285), then take Hwy 316 straight into Athens....stay off Hwy 78 and other back roads....2 lane speed traps.
Everyone takes 316 off I-85 to get to Athens, simplest, fastest route.
I would do this too.

agreed. Take I-85 North to 316. I live here and you always risk a back-up at anytime on that side of 285 towards 78 (reason is lots of trucks take it). I just checked for you and there is no construction scheduled for I-85 north thru town so you should be all good. I would however check again on friday on georgianavigator.com and just be sure. Also, on a saturday morning you should have smooth sailing right thru town. See you up there!
