It’s a loud place until you hit em in the mouth, and then they fold like a cheap tent. They are notorious for leaving early. I have seen it time and again. If the Vols go full-tilt like the second half of the mizzou game, it’ll be like Vanderbilt in terms of the SC-UT ratio of fans. They don’t have original stuff, as they borrowed “2001” and that stupid Sandstorm song. Get past that and it gets much better.
Only time I’ve known them to stay loud is when they had a better team, like in the Spurrier days.
That said, the Vols had better work on silent count and stuff like that that hurt them in the Georgia game. If they can work that stuff out, it should be a much more favorable environment midway through the first half, because the Vols are the much deeper and more talented team.
