Traveling to an SEC Baseball Series

Thinking about trying to make a road baseball series this season. Any past experiences with this? I imagine most tickets will be in the $10-$20 range from the host ticket office, just wondering if anyone has any input on pre-ordering tickets and booking hotels. Doesn't seem like a hotel would be hard to find.

It all depends on which road series you pick. Hotels will not be a problem anywhere except Starkville and tickets are not a problem.

I've been to Alabama and Auburn a number of times. Just find out from the school when individual game tickets go on sale and get some them. Hotels aren't a problem although I know the weekend we play Alabama this year is the weekend of their spring game so hotels may be hard then.

We have gone to ole miss, auburn and bama. Have always just bought tickets through the opposing teams ticket office. No problems getting a hotel. Can usually even stay at the LSU team hotel.

I've been to a lot of SEC baseball and never had a problem with hotels except for regionals. Most SEC schools are good venues. Apart from LSU I've enjoyed Miss St. the most I think(just for baseball.)

Arkansas or Miss. State are definitely the ones I would try to hit. I see some bashing the Starkville hotel situation, but I do not buy that. I went and graduated from MSU and grew up in Columbus. They have plenty of hotels in the nearby region and plenty of good restaurants to choose from while you are there. As one poster suggested Columbus is, also, a nearby option. Their baseball facilities are very good and the food in the left and right field lounges are excellent and most are very hospitable.

I've to baseball series at Ole Miss, Alabama, and Tennessee. Ole Miss was by far the better environment of the 3. With that said, the SEC Tournament in Hoover is the best.

I usually attend the Miss St series and always have a nice time...the fans are great to be around and the facilities are very nice as well...
I have always been able to get tickets from their ticket office and hotels have never been a problem...Hilton Garden Inn and La Quinta are both brand new...there is also a hampton inn, a holiday inn express, and a Comfort Suites (which is within walking distance)....all hotels mentioned are nice and within two miles of the venue...
need more info on starkville or oxford, let me know....
