To save everyone a Google search: Murray State is located in Murray, Kentucky. We checked. It’s real.

The OSU Cowboys kick off at 6:00 PM, which means you have approximately 9 hours to tailgate before kickoff. Pace yourselves.

Please be responsible. Don’t drink and drive. Call a friend, use a rideshare, or make a plan before you start making decisions you’ll have to explain to us later.

And while we’re asking for favors… learn how to drive and don’t crash either.

Some of us have to work today, and we’d really like to spend our shift enjoying the AC in our patrol cars instead of standing in the middle of the road while you explain how you “barely had anything to drink.”

Have fun. Be responsible. Get home safe.

Go Pokes.
