Remember, it is Winter here, not Summer. Come prepared. Have a safe trip.
90 degrees here. Beach weather!

Going to go out on a limb. I think this one wins who’s traveling the furthest.
24hrs of flights. Hopefully business class!

Are you driving a hilux?



We have 4 hilux's at work. Great Ute's.

Your arms are going to be sore flying that far.
Not looking forward to the jet lag.

send more punters
Named my son Peyton. Got a great leg. Only 6 years old. He's starting to learn to kick a rugby ball.

Hey lads, huge Vol fan from Sydney, Australia. Studied at UTK in 2009 for a semester and fell in love. Flying to the states to watch the game for 4 days. Getting nervous already. Hope Heupel has the boys ready to fire. Go Big Orange!
Terrific! You win the Loyal Vol Fan Award, mate! Now go to Columbus & put a buckeye on the barbie! :cool:

Leaving the states today. Was on the plane with Des Howard. He said Heupel just didn't prepare the troops properly. Said they didn't do the basics right. He never appreciated coming out with shirts off. OSU who are used to the weather didn't even do that. The weather was brutal. He mentioned OSU had a shorter time outside before the game. Vols spent an eternity practising before. The practise outside was also super intense and looked tiring. No warmers on the sideline for the Vols vs OSU having jackets on. Otherwise it was a great trip. Columbus is a massive dump without the campus. The campus itself is very dull and boring. But the gameday atmosphere was NFL like. Their kick off team, running to the end zone pumping their fans, put so much pressure back on the Vols. They did a great job playing music right until Nico snapped the ball. It was just a brutal night. And awfully cold. What could've been if not for that face mask though. Checking out from Dallas. Until next time USA! Peace.

Exactly on the facemask.
I said that and a lot scoffed and said didn't matter we played terrible BUT in a game as in life, certain events can put you on the wrong road and change the total complexion and sometimes it just spirals out of control. If we were playing an also ran you can overcome things but they are loaded and seemed like everything went their way after that except the roughing the passer penalty that was just football. A 3 & out would have definingly made a different game not saying we win but they would not have scored on their first possession. So us getting the ball after a 3 & out versus getting the ball down 7 to 0 was the initial difference, how it went from there we will never know. I thought it was strange that we got to the QB on that 3rd down opening of game and sacked him albeit w/ facemask but I'm not sure if we touched him in the pocket after that all game.
