Probably no away games for me in 2026, unless we're talking post-season.
I've only been up to Minnesota once, but I'd plan on going back any time we're playing there IN SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER. Great city, easy to get to/from the game on the train. Unfortunately the past few meetings up there have consistently been in Nov.
The last time I was there (November 2016, I think), everyone was wearing those great white north winter hats and literally using credit cards to chip ice off their seat backs. And we lost.
I've been to Eugene for a game (not involving NU). Very scenic, two-ish hour drive from Portland. Glad I went at least once.
If I go my whole life without ever visiting East Lansing, I don't imagine I'll regret it.
