Boots are on the ground here in Detroit.

It was a disastrous morning for anyone who followed my journey on Twitter to make it to Michigan – I will give the city of Houston 80% of the blame and take 20% for myself.

However, we are here now.

I will be over on campus at Michigan taking photos and videos around noon central time. Of course, we have a Friday afternoon livestream coming this afternoon soon as well.

I will tell you this, there has been a ton of burnt orange flowing through the Detroit airport thus far. I even heard The Eyes of Texas on my flight out of Houston this AM. Folks are excited and the Texas faithful have travelled very well as you would expect.

Only 26 hours and some change before kickoff!

Whoops.

 

 

CJ, you really didn’t know Houston had 2 airports? 

lmao

Maybe I did, but I saw IAH, and the H made me think Hobby. 

I lived in Detroit for about two years. I found it to be a dreadful place for most of the year, but it's beautiful this time of year. Those Michigan people don't have much other than the Wolverines. HOOKEM

Any Friday Ann Arbor meet ups taking place?

I lived in Detroit for 41 years. This is the best time of the year in Michigan.

Rough start @CJ Vogel but you can catch up on sleep tonight. Maybe. At least you're young! You got this.🤘

Lol don't feel bad, I moved from down there to Austin at the start of the pandemic and I still can't tell you how many airports Austin has or the names🤷🏿‍♂️

Punch IAH into your GPS of choice and it takes you to, well IAH. 

Baseball field 

It’s pretty chilly, probably 64 right now. Quite breezy as well. 

I obviously don’t have a view into the stadium, but I do wonder how a breeze like today’s would affect the pass tomorrow. 

This is right outside the Michigan golf course and you can see the flags waving. 

Stealing signs out there, CJ? Watch out. 😄

It’s really Detroit’s fault for sucking so bad there’s no direct flight from Austin’s 1 airport! @Dread-headed Texan we’re still small enough to have just one airport lol😜

Can somebody up there please make sure that @CJ Vogel gets to the correct stadium? There is more than one sports arena with tiers of seats for spectators in the area.

Don't blame Houston because you have no idea what you are doing? 🤣
