Great post. 7:00 is a perfect time for a kickoff (with national, primetime TV exposure) and looks like perfect weather conditions for an early November evening. Go Hoosiers!!Well..., you can always put more clothes on but you can only take so much off...
I'll take cold weather but over hot any day, plus the missus likes to cuddle when it drops below 40...
Layer up, buy some hot chocolate and enjoy a beautiful evening...
The best part is there's no mad rush to get down there... Arrive by 1 or 2 in B-town and you literally have time to do anything your heart desires prior to Kickoff and still catch the entire game...
What's not to like...
Plus, the leaves colors are close to peaking.
It's going to be a Beautiful day and evening both literally and figuratively..

I was at that game as well. Miserable conditions, but great outcome.
Great story. Mine is that my wife and her whole family attended UM so I bought 8 additional tickets and invited them all down to see UM play. It was one of the best days of my life. None of them would even talk to me the rest of that day!
Haha,that’s awesome.I took a buddy with me,no way my wife was gonna go.
stadium seats are bad news. If you ever tried to sit behind someone who has one it's worse that being on an airplane seat. You can't move your knees.
i'll take hot over cold every time. when i left indiana 40 years ago and headed south, the only thing i didn't miss were the winters.Well..., you can always put more clothes on but you can only take so much off...

Yeah, the wife and I drove to B-town today through a wet snow squall. Let me tell you this- I am so-o-o-o done with October.Snowing in Bloomington currently.
You can get the setbacks there at the game? I haven't seen them at that stadium. If they are, I guess I haven't paid much attention to them.
Vern Payne, a 5-10" G, graduated in 1968 as the leading scorer at 14+/game. He was second in team scoring his sophomore and junior years at 14+ and 15+/game, respectably. I was in high school during his time at IU so I remember seeing him play.
There is a window in a block building in the southwest corner of the stadium where you can rent them. They usually have some at a kiosk just outside of that building as well.
Disagree with this. I use them and the people in front of us have them. We are all comfortable.
Good for you! Maybe yours were fitted on the bench differently. Even so I'm not commenting on the chairs to the people in front of me. I have sat in two locations and both seats were very wobbly. The guy next me moved his 25 yr season tickets because of it. The real problem is those aluminum benches. Hot in September, cold in Oct/Nov. and uncomfortable. They should be replaced with high impact plastic that is crimson color. I would like to see them as individual seats in the stadium.
Yeah, that would be nice. I love the idea of crimson seats in there. I wonder what that would cost?
In short time, the sun would eat those things alive. Can you imagine the expense of replacing 55,000 plastic...excuse me, acrylic seats? (One can charge more for acrylic than plastic.) In time, our star will eat virtually everything alive and dead, it's been said, but let's take one game at a time.
You might be right about that, but there are seats in the NEZ that are red in color so whatever material they are using for those then duplicate to the rest of the stadium.
Hell, if nothing else, paint the aluminum benches alternating red and white for "the candy-striped stadium" look. Let's brand this thing to the max, Fred!
I've heard Fisch tell the story that we had the wind in the 3rd. When the 4th quarter started, the wind changed 180 degrees.
It did exactly that and it poured almost the whole game.
