Hi Caleb,
Are you sure you have the right object?
It should be by far the brightest object in the sky at that time.
Like all planets, wait for it to get a bit higher and keep looking. The more you look the more you will see. Jupiter is considerably larger than Saturn and exhibits much detail in good seeing. I'm really not sure what you can see with 80mm apeture though. Maybe someone else can help?
If you are looking at Jupiter you should be able to easily see four moons (on most nights) and two dark bands across the planet.
Using a Barlow in poor seeing will just make things worse.
Have fun,
Doug
