It’s misty

Usually, before an Auburn tackle football game, I lay out a bunch of random notes and tidbits you may not exactly be aware of.

Well, I don’t have any left. Two weeks of buildup have drained me of any useful information.

The drive into Tuscaloosa was surprisingly swift. The backroads are key when traveling between the two biggest colleges in the Yellowhammer State.

When you get to T-Town, however, it can get a bit tricky. Just ask your Auburn Tigers, who were late showing up to the Tiger Walk. I’m pretty confident I logged 45 miles driving around campus looking for my assigned parking deck. But the OA-News has made it safe and sound and are ready to fill that newspaper and the Internetz full of Iron Bowl coverage. Check out dothaneagle.com also. They’ll provide the Alabama spin.

Oh, and just when you thought the buildup to this game couldn’t last any longer, CBS has just pushed kickoff back 15 minutes. Go figure.
