Planning a road trip..easier ticket, A&M, Auburn, UF or Arkansas

Want to go to A&M since we haven't played them in a while outside of the Cotton bowl a few years ago. This seems like it will be a difficult ticket to get. If you had to put these in order of ease of tickets and also factoring in hotel reservations, etc. how you would rank them?

For some reason I'm really looking forward to Auburn.
ETA: mainly bc I remember there being an abundance of good looking females.

Florida (due to distance)
Auburn (limited demand because so many fans have already been)
Arkansas (Thanksgiving and distance, but first trip to Fayetteville in years)
A & M (harder ticket to find than 2011 at Bama)
I may have an extra hotel room for you in Auburn or Florida (assuming you're over 21 and have an under-the-limit, valid credit card).
Post your email. If I post mine, it'll get hijacked by Ranters.

Is this a consensus thought?

Oh yeah. It'll be just like it was for BAMA. And face value is more

That's reasonable. Factor in less stadium capacity, less allotment for LSU, and more A&M student body that will not sell and I can get on board with that.

Right now it is like that, but I am counting the Aggies to lose (choke) a couple of games prior to LSU, therefore, making the demand not as bad.
It'll still be a tough ticket regardless.

In terms of an actual road trip (for the experience, not necessarily a ticket to the game), I am really hoping I will be able to go to CS.

I'm basing A & M being a tougher ticket on less tickets, TAF cut-off, close proximity, and it being a "new" destination. Wasn't it a ranking of 2100 for Bama last year and this year it was like 1350 for A & M.
Posted on 8/9/12 at 2:14 pm to Weaver
A&M is going to be a tough ticket to get. I'd probably say Florida, Auburn, Arkansas, then A&M

No hotels within 50 miles of college station. Good luck!!

Where at? I am thinking of driving from Gulfport instead of flying. Flying would be about $600 for my brother and I. Lot cheaper to drive.

There are a few more hotels currently being built that should be done by Football season. Keep checking.
I'd also look at the B&Bs in and around town.
7F Lodge (I got married here -- its nice and fun)
Crow's Nest
Messina Hof Winery
La Salle (Downtown Bryan)
Tickets and allotment should get better when the new Kyle Field is renovated. By all accounts, it sounds like new capacity in 2015 will be 98K-102K.

A&M is the hardest ticket to get this early that i have ever experienced

Best Western Plus
4200 NW 97th Blvd.
Gainesville, FL
$121/night
I'm flying into Orlando on Southwest and then driving the two hours to Gainesville. I had a flight credit with Southwest due to a team from Stoney Brook.

I would like to take my husband (an ex HS coach) to the Auburn game for our anniversary. Just need tickets, can arrange everything else. wiesemanor@gmail.com
