Sounds like a lot of Utes coming to Stillwater for the game. I love it! But I’m going to have to bring more beer…

Also, yes, as someone said SeatGeek is your best bet now. And there are a few rooms left for that weekend it looks like. The best/closest hotel I found with vacancy was the Best Western Plus Cimarron Hotel & Suites. It’s just East of the stadium and walking distance to campus.

The only football games that will ever be on “Big 12 on ESPN+” will be crappy non-con or MAYBE really crappy conference games. Everything else you’ll be able to watch on ESPN, Fox, CBS, or one of their affiliates like ESPN2, Fox Sports, yada yada yada. I’ve enjoyed the Disney/Hulu/ESPN package because, like someone said, you can watch pretty much all of the non football/men’s basketball sports on it.

This. One, maybe two non-conference games is all you should expect to be on ESPN+ for football. What I love about ESPN+ is I can watch all the Big 12 baseball, softball, soccer, wrestling, and basketball too.

Yeah, Tulsa isn’t a bad drive at all. There will be plenty of lots close to campus where you can pay to park. For that game, I’m sure you’ll be paying $40-70 for the closer parking, though. There is in fact a shuttle from downtown. I’ll post a very informative link below. But here’s what it says about the shuttle:

“Catch the shuttle at 7th and Lewis in Downtown Stillwater for free, round-trip service to Boone Pickens Stadium starting 3 hours before the game and continuing until 30 minutes after kick-off. Shuttles will resume in the 3rd quarter and continue for a minimum of 30 minutes postgame – or until lines are gone.”

As far as food. You’ll have to stop by the Eskimo Joe’s area for at least a beer. That block also has a great dive bar (that will be packed) called George’s Stables and a restaurant called The Garage Burgers and Beer down the street. You’ll be offered great free food from just about every tailgate, though. We OSU fans are great hosts. There will also be food trucks, tents, etc. set up all over. Hideaway Pizza is the second most popular game day restaurant and it’s a block south of the Joe’s area!

South of campus is Washington Street or “The Strip” as we call it. It has all the college bars and a few restaurants as well. Willie’s Saloon is where Garth Brooks got his start. The Copper Penny across the street has a drink called a “Limey” and trust me you’ll only need one. Outlaws down the street if you want to two step or line dance. Shots if you want to play pool. The Union or College Bar if you want to get cheap drinks. And finally Murphy’s if you want to finish the night under some neon palm trees.

Exactly.

Yes! So excited to have you all!

IMO, the seats on the far East side of the stadium closer to the basketball arena, Gallagher-Iba, are at a bad angle and are in the sun for a portion of the game making it uncomfortable in an Oklahoma September. Unless you sit higher up which it sounds like you don’t want to do. Yeah, our stadium runs East-West. Other than that, there’s not a bad seat in the place.

You can enter the stadium bowl from two levels. Because you won’t want to climb many stairs, I’d look for tickets in the 100’s or single digit sections. I’ll post a link to the seating chart below.

As my name suggests, my tailgate is set up on a street called Knoblock. It runs right into the stadium. We’re also on the corner of Elm, which runs right into Eskimo Joe’s. So stop by!

Utah game is sold out, but the OSU Athletics website will have links to Seat Geek where you can find third party tickets.

Looks to be plenty of seats near exits in the West end zone!

Right, but that inventory came from somewhere else. Supply of games remained roughly the same.

[Knoblocker]

Yep. If all those teams are undefeated, that sounds like the Big Noon Kickoff on Fox and Gameday on ESPN right there. I could see ours being the national Fox 2:30 game. That’s my favorite game time!

Great stuff! These kids are having the times of their lives. This season is going to be so much fun.
