Attendance

I saw it reported that the Orange Bowl had around 63k people in attendance. Can someone who was there give an estimate of UT fans? It looked like a lot. Thanks in advance.

For those hitting restaurants and bars, was VOL Nation well represented? Did the real orange stand out in the crowds?

Awesome! Tennessee fans always travel well.

You knew it was Tennessee's night when the lady singing the national anthem was decked out in a dress and matching shoes that were definitely and unmistakenly Tennessee template orange,

Tennessee nation was well represented and the estimate of 40,000 is probably pretty close, after having been in the playoffs, this was a significant step down for Clemson faithful and then the Vols just pushed them on down the stairwell,

Wouldn't be surprised to see Clemson and UNC come hat in hand begging to join the SEC as Texas and Oklahoma did a couple of years ago

One thing I noticed at the game was Vol fans were scattered (very dense in some sections) throughout the entire stadium. Once the Clemson fans left mid-fourth quarter, you definitely see how many TN fans there were. I would say around 40k is about right.
