A large crowd is expected. School officials are allowing people to tailgate in the school parking lot, though alcohol and tobacco are prohibited because it's on school grounds.
At the end of the game, vehicles will not be able to get into the front entrance of the school for about 45 minutes because both lanes will be used for exiting vehicles, police said.
