I haven't heard of any specific bar where UM fans are going. My plan was to go downtown and catch the red line to NRG. Most of the "best" bars will not be open until 4 or 5 today. I will probably end up at Flying Saucer (good beer bar with good food).
I did this for the Final Four last year, and it worked out. The way back is more difficult. I walked north from the stadium about a mile and got an Uber from there.
Update - Holman Draft Hall is opening at 1pm, and they are located near the red line route.
Some light rain is falling across patches of the metro area this morning, and we’ll see some additional showers and a few thunderstorms later this morning and throughout the day. A line of storms will move through this afternoon, likely reaching the downtown area between 4 to 6 pm and then pushing off the coast shortly thereafter. The key question is whether these storms will become severe. We can be confident there will be strong winds, primarily from the west. Expect gusts up to 35 to 40 mph later today. Although the overall chances are low, we also can’t entirely rule out severe thunderstorms with the potential for hail and possibly a tornado. Unfortunately a lot of this mess will be setting up just ahead of the College Football National Championship Game at NRG Stadium this evening, and during the afternoon commute.
Highs today will reach into the low 70s, with a decent level of humidity, before the front pushes through this afternoon. After that we’ll turn breezy and colder, with temperatures dropping to about 40 degrees on Monday night. It’s going to be blustery outside with the strong winds overnight.

I think that means that tailgating will start at 11AM and then access to the actual stadium is 3:30PM.
My ticket reads, "Stadium Entry 3:30PM".

I definitely view that as referring to his relationship with the media.

Bravo! That is hilarious. I actually feel a little bad for him.
