Visiting for games on Nov. 15 & 16

I am brining my wife and two boys (8 and 11) to campus the weekend of Nov. 15-17.

We have tickets to go to the Maryland-Marquette basketball game on Friday and the Maryland-Rutgers football game on Saturday (my mom went to Marquette and my wife went Rutgers).

First, does anybody know what time the basketball game will be? Time says TBD and one site says 1 pm but shouldn’t it be like an 8:30 tipoff?

My plan is to book a room at the University Hotel and walk to the football stadium to avoid having to park. I would also walk to the Xfinity Center if it’s a day game but assume walking back late at night with tired young kids would be a bad idea. Is parking at Xfinity Center easy? Should we take an Uber?

On Saturday after the football game I thought it would be fun to take the metro into D.C. for dinner. My friends and I used to take the metro to D.C. every Friday afternoon my senior year to bar hop but that was almost 30 years ago. I assume the metro is safe right? Any recommendations on where we could go for dinner?

If the basketball game is Friday night we will walk around campus on Friday afternoon. If the game is Friday afternoon we will probably do the campus walk on Saturday afternoon.

Any tips or things I should be aware of? I visited the campus briefly last spring, otherwise haven’t been back in a while.

Terps in The Pros

A year ago, I created the first version of a tool to make it easier for myself to see what players from specific colleges were doing in the pros. Now I just get a daily email update which saves me 15-20 minutes a day checking box scores on ESPN! Would love to get feedback on the latest version: https://www.fandaily.io/schools/maryland

UMD is favored by 17.5 and the over/under is 44.5. Thinking of taking the over again.

First time going to a football game

Heading to the game tomorrow with my two kids (9 and 5) and we have a parking pass for the regents garage. What time should we plan on getting there, and is there anything you would recommend for us to check out or do before the game? I was thinking about trying to get there between 10:30 and 11:00 and just walking around the stadium, but wanted to ask in case anyone has advice or recommendations that I'm not thinking of.

First Timer Tips

What’s up guys i’m a new international student at George Mason from the Caribbean (big ups 🇬🇩) and i’ve always wanted to go to a college football game. The atmosphere and vibes look sick. Since Mason doesn’t have a a team this is the closest one to me.

What are some things I should know? Which of the upcoming games would have the best atmosphere and what stands should I try to get?

Appreciate anything that could be helpful thanks

The white tent in the end zone at SECU Stadium

For the second season in a row, SECU Stadium features a large white tent (like you might find at a wedding) in the end zone, in front of the entrance to the visitor's locker room. It's clearly visible on TV as it sits just behind the end zone. At Saturday's game, I saw some MSU players entering and exiting the locker room via the tent, while others were using the door on the side of Gossett Hall. I've been to many college football stadiums over the years and have never seen a tent used like that. Quite frankly, it looks small time and, let's face it, it's not like SECU has a lot going for it, even without the tent.

Any ideas on why this tent is there for the second straight season?

Also, I noticed that as soon as the game was over, the referees ran off the field and got into a white van which was driven away from the stadium with a police escort. Is there no locker room for the referees? Are they driven to Xfinity to change after the game? Is this a Div II stadium? Maybe all of this would be more palatable if the team actually won on Saturday.

Terps football open conference play at home to Michigan State today at 3:30pm on BTN.

Terps are favored by 8points and the over/under is 46.5. I think that's a fair spread given this their first major opponent. I do expect a close game though.
