I'm not trying to deter you, but don't try to be elaborate for this game, because you'll just end up spending more time setting up than you will actually enjoying the tailgate.
I normally tailgate near the music building (they have a nice new huge lawn to go with the great new building), but with how early it is, we're just gonna do a breakfast in an on-campus apartment, drink a little, and walk to the game.
Overdo it for a night game. Go all out. Take it easy for this noon kickoff, or you'll find yourself rushing to accomplish everything and simply run out of time to actually enjoy it.
