What time does Oklahoma at Mississippi State kick off on October 24?

It is a flex window: either 2:30–3:30 p.m. or 5–7 p.m. Central, to be set by the network about twelve days out. Plan lodging for the whole day either way; a late kick means a post-game crowd on Highway 12 until midnight.

What time is LSU at Auburn on October 24?

11:00 a.m. Central on ABC/ESPN. An early kick means you are on the road before dawn if you are driving in that morning, which is why the Friday night is the one to book. Our Auburn homes are spoken for that weekend; our Auburn guide covers the other home games.

Which Stay'ca homes are still open for October 23-25?

Three Starkville homes are open and bookable direct for October 23-25, 2026 as of October 11: Bulldog Beauty Stadium View, The Camellia Estate and The Cowbell Cottage. Our Auburn homes are spoken for that weekend. Open dates move daily, so check the live calendar on each home's page.

Do your homes have a two-night minimum on game weekends?

Most do, Friday and Saturday. On a marquee weekend a Saturday-only booking leaves a Friday nobody can fill, so the minimum protects the home. Ask if you truly need one night; we will tell you straight.

Is a whole home cheaper than two hotel rooms on a sellout weekend?

Usually, once you count what the hotels near campus charge on a Saturday like this, and the house comes with a kitchen, parking, and a porch for the pregame. Split across a crew of eight to twelve it is not close.

Oxford is not home that weekend, right?

Correct. Ole Miss hosts Missouri on October 17 and Auburn on October 31, so the Oxford Square is a normal Saturday on October 24. A State fan who cannot find a bed in Starkville can base in Oxford, about ninety minutes away, and drive in.

Oct 24: Oklahoma at MSU, LSU at Auburn — Where to Stay

Saturday, October 24, 2026 puts Oklahoma in Starkville and LSU in Auburn on the same afternoon, and three of our Starkville homes are still open for Friday and Saturday night as of October 11. Oklahoma is the second-hardest Starkville ticket after Alabama, and a town of 25,000 hosting 60,000 fans runs out of beds fast. LSU at Auburn is a top-two Jordan-Hare date in any year, and our Auburn homes are spoken for. Here is the honest state of both towns.

Starkville: Oklahoma at Davis Wade

Starkville is a town of about 25,000 that hosts 60,000 on a football Saturday. Every one of those people who is not driving home that night needs a bed, and the hotel inventory near campus is a rounding error against that number. Oklahoma is the kind of opponent that brings its own fan base across three states, which is why this weekend fills faster than the Missouri or Vanderbilt dates on either side of it.

The kickoff is a flex window: 2:30–3:30 p.m. or 5–7 p.m. Central, set by television roughly twelve days before the game. Plan for the late kick. A 6 p.m. start means the Cotton District is full until midnight and Highway 12 is a parking lot afterward, and a home you can walk or Uber back to earns its keep.

Still open in Starkville for October 23-25, checked October 11, 2026:

The Camellia Estate — sleeps 12, four bedrooms. Two families or the extended tailgate.
Bulldog Beauty Stadium View — sleeps 13, three bedrooms, and the name is not a metaphor.
The Cowbell Cottage — sleeps 8, three bedrooms.

Already booked: House of Rivals — Cowbell Row, Maroon and Oak 1878, The One Nine Seven, Birch and The Bully Bliss. Those went weeks ago, and the whole-crew house went first. Three remain, and the group-sized ones tend to go first.

Auburn: LSU at Jordan-Hare, 11 a.m.

Auburn has sold out 22 straight home games, and LSU is the game the town circles. The 11:00 a.m. Central kick on ABC/ESPN changes the math: Toomer's Corner is full by 7 a.m., the Tiger Walk is mid-morning, and anyone driving in from Birmingham, Atlanta or Baton Rouge that morning is leaving in the dark.

Our Auburn homes are spoken for on LSU weekend. Our other Auburn homes, including War Eagle Flatts, Tiger Den, The Tiger Terrace and Eagle's Landing, are booked for October 23-25. For future home games, our Auburn guide covers the town, the stadium and every home we have there, so you can get in early on the next one.

Plan B: base in Oxford

Ole Miss is not home on October 24. Missouri visits on October 17 and Auburn on October 31, so the Square is a normal Saturday and our Oxford home is not carrying a game-weekend rate. Starkville is about ninety minutes from Oxford by Highway 6 and Highway 25. For a State fan who cannot find a bed in Starkville, that is a real option: sleep in Oxford, drive in for the tailgate, drive back after. See our Oxford guide.
