in Tennessee Vols Football

Some all-star members of Vol squads past will be donning the Orange and White in Neyland Stadium this Saturday during the Dish Network Orange and White Game.

Fans in attendance Saturday will be treated to a star-studded flag football game during halftime, including Vol and NFL greats Al Wilson, Peerless Price and Terry Fair.

“When we (former players) got together to talk about doing something, we wanted it to be different,” Fair said. “At the same time we wanted it to be fun and fan-friendly, so we came up with an Alumni flag football game.

“It was a great way to bring the past, current and future together under the same setting — Neyland Stadium. Though we are removed from UT, one thing holds true: we still give our all for Tennessee.”

TENNESSEE FOOTBALL MINI-PACKS FOR 2010 SEASON ON SALE MONDAY

The University of Tennessee Athletics Department will be offering Big Orange fans two mini-pack ticket options to see the Volunteers play in Neyland Stadium this fall. Tickets go on sale this Monday.

“We were able to create this min-pack option based on the number of tickets claimed by visiting teams,” said Chris Fuller, senior associate athletics director for external operations. “We think this option will be attractive to fans who may not be able to attend the full seven-game home schedule.”

Mini-Pack 1 includes tickets for Sept. 4 vs. UT Martin, Sept. 18 vs. Florida and Sept. 25 vs. UAB for $150. Mini-Pack 2 includes tickets for Sept. 11 vs. Oregon, Nov. 13 vs. Ole Miss and Nov. 27 vs. Kentucky for $170. The mini-packs are limited to four per account. Any unsold individual game tickets will be made available in July.
