Turn around, head south on 75 to Chatty, cut across North Georgia and then into SC

There's not to many places to turn around on that road. I've been stuck on it plenty of times behind wrecks and such.

No where to turn around at all. Bad thing is I live in Lenior city so was torn between I40 and down 75. Guess who made mistake. West bound is moving down mountain now. Must be wreck on east bound side. I think if we can get moving then we will make it. Straight to game. Hotel after game

I wish you luck man. Me and my family got stuck in that same stretch a few years ago. We sit there for hours because of snow.

Even crazier..a section of I-20 in Columbia is closed right now due to weather. Here's a video shot by the local news station earlier this morning. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152827395770763&set=vb.80429805762&type=2&theater

This shouldn't effect the game. The heavy snow was very localized. Some parts of Columbia got very little, if any, while outer areas got as must as 4+ inches.

Greenville, SC (upstate) got a couple of inches, while my house here in Greer (15 minutes away) got squat. Tryon, NC / Landrum/SC also got squat, from what I've heard.

Crazy.

NCDOT updated their announcement, and it makes it sound like traffic is moving, although at a crawl. Are you guys still sitting?

Keep us updated. Leaving Knoxville in 10-20 minutes. Have to decide between I-40 or I-26 via Johnson City

No still not moved an inch. I'd stay away from I40. West bound is moving but east still at a stand still. Big truck driver said he heard 3 before it will b open. I don't care if I roll in at halftime I will be there to support my BIG ORANGE
