I don't have much faith in Auburn, but I think the Arkansas/Texas A&M game should be a good one. That's a rivalry from way back in the old SWAC days.

I think 2024 SEC members Oklahoma and Texas were part of the Southwestern Conference too.

Currently in Denver international waiting to board my flight to Knoxville 😜 I was originally going to attend the game with my dad but things (not getting into) happened and now I’m going with my brother instead. We plan to tailgate and scream our heads off in section PP. GBO! 🍊

Knocked off early today and got the pool deep-cleaned this afternoon. Going to squeeze at least 1 more weekend out of it. Water is hovering around 79 so may have to kick on the heater.
Watching the game from home and smokin 2 chickens. The wife will then chop up and make her famous chicken salad…hoagie rolls, etc.
Will probably be some adult beverages and cigars involved during game time. Just a hunch though.
GBO!

This is the first weekend I'll be able to watch the game from the comfort of my own couch since the UVA game and I can't wait. We have some friends coming over who we converted to quasi-Vols fans back in the butch jones era if you can believe that. They contracted BVS REAL quick but still root for the big orange with us. We're either picking up indian food or firing up the big green egg and cooking ribeyes T-Rex style. It depends on how the day's going with the tiny dictator. Toddlers have a way of wrecking your plans one way or another, or at least ours does.

I've got my eye on the exact same games that you mentioned, Freak. Pretty good lineup of games tomorrow. Hope everyone has a great weekend and Go Vols!!!!!

Big game tomorrow. It's aight game at Neyland, we have the revenge factor and we're rolling out the dark mode uniforms. If we get past South Carolina, we'll have a week off to heal and work before Texas A&M comes to town.

If you're going to the game or watching from home, let us know what your plans are and, of course, what's on the food menu.

If you haven't checked out the visitor list for this game, there are a TON of prospects visiting for this one.

If you missed it yesterday, Tennessee got a big commit from a Top 100 player in 4-star combo guard Bishop Boswell. Solid pick up for the Vols.

Anyone looking forward to any other college games this weekend? Here are a few (mostly SEC) games that caught my eye…

#8 USC at Colorado -- noon
#22 Florida at Kentucky -- noon
Texas A&M at Arkansas -- noon
#1 Georgia at Auburn -- 3:30
#13 LSU at #20 Ole Miss --6:00

Anybody catching a high school game tonight? I know Tennessee commit Boo Carter and Bradley Central travel out to West Knoxville to face Farragut.

As for NFL games this weekend, I'll be watching to see how Josh Dobbs does this week after getting his first career victory last week against Dallas. It's a tall task though, as the Cardinals travel to play the 49'ers where they are a 14-point underdog. Regardless, it will be fun to watch Dobbs.

Feel free to post whatever is on your mind heading into the weekend. Go Vols!

P.S. Dont' forget to enter the pick the score contest for the South Carolina and remember to get your weekly picks in for the season contest.

It's a shame all these good games get bunched up on one day and you can't watch but one at a time. It would be nice if we could spread these games out so that we have something to watch during the week instead of Corn hole matches, or WNBA

Grilling some ribeyes tonight and watching some of these games . Pretty solid Friday night slate. Taking my 2 and a half yo to Gameday in the morning at Duke. It’s kind of a once in a lifetime thing around here. I’m going to tailgate before the Duke vs Notre Dame and I have a ticket for the game, but I said NO. I’m not missing our game versus South Carolina . I’ve been waiting for this since last November .

Finishing up bathroom remodel in the morning then heading to downtown Rocky Mount VA for their big 150th birthday celebration. Lots of bands, beer and tasty food. I’ll be back home in plenty of time to watch us crush the chickens.
