Rice game moved back one hour to 7 PM.

Due to heat considerations the kick-off time has been moved from 6 PM to 7 PM. The time was changed on the Texas website but I haven't seen an announcement of this anywhere else. From yesterdays AAS.

"Texas’ Sept. 3 football opener against Rice has been moved to 7 p.m., because of heat concerns, a Longhorns’ spokesman said this afternoon. The game at Royal-Memorial Stadium, which will be telecast on the Longhorn Network, originally was scheduled to start at 6 p.m."

Im excited

This will be my first trip to DKR. Is there anything I should do before/after the game. Or places I should go

Near the top right of the page is a little box

Says, “Search posts and comments”. Type in “Tailgate/Tailgating”
That’ll get you started and I’m sure many others will post after this to help out.

A virgin!

Come early, be LOUD, wear Burnt Orange, stay late. Don’t forget your sunglasses. Welcome to your new addiction. Enjoy it.

Gives me some more time to get home after the Michigan game. Hopefully I will have the LHN channel because I want to see how Sam McGuffie does against your D.

Sure hope the game is on ESPN3.com if my provider doesn't have the LHN yet.
