After the final whistle

The core of campus stays closed to cars until about 2.5 hours after the game, and some streets turn one-way until traffic clears. The free Crimson Ride shuttle runs until 1.5 hours after the game, and the downtown shuttle until 1 hour after.

One thing to avoid

From a specialist guide
Don't try to drive into the core of campus after the 4-hour mark: roads close and you need a game-day permit to get through.
