here is the schedule from last year...I can't find anything yet for this year:


In addition to free admission to the game, Fan Appreciation Day will feature an autograph signing with head coach Butch Jones and Vol players on the field at Neyland Stadium.
The signing will be held on the field at Neyland Stadium from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. The waiting line for the fans will begin forming at 7 a.m., at Gate 7 and the gate will open at 11 a.m.
During the autograph session, the team will be divided by position.
Coach Butch Jones will be located in the North end zone of Neyland Stadium. Fans will be allowed one item for autograph per player or coach.
The Tennessee cheer and dance teams along with Smokey will available for photos and autographs.
As part of Fan Day, fans will also have an opportunity to purchase 2013 season tickets, as members of the Tennessee Athletic Department will be available during Fan Day to give fans the opportunity to "test drive" available seats for the fall.

Me and Shirley were there last year. Didn't care for the scoring setup and format last year. Would rather see the team divided into
mixed OL, WRs, RBs, and TE units. Then each QB given a full and consecutive three or more 4 down series with each unit mix.
Plus go a full 4 quarters. Do the same with the DLs. I think we get a fuller spectrum of our players. abilities and readiness. Let the boys play.

We enjoyed the trip to Knoxville. Eating at Calhoun's but will never park there again. Seeing the Vol Navy up close and personal. walking the riverside and all over the UT campus. Exploring the interior of some of the buildings. Strolling completely around Neyland. Watching kids having so much fun we wanted to be kids again ourselves. Having breakfast at Pete's as usual. Enjoying Market Square shopping at farmers' market and stuffing our ice chest with goodies to haul back to KY. If you do this have lots of artificial and long lasting ice or dry ice to keep perishables fresh. We're lucky enough to stay at a friend's guesthouse so have a fridge to store and refreeze the ice packs during the night
before leaving Knoxville. In any case, while we enjoyed the trip, we prefer to see a better format so will wait until we hear more from CBJ as to how the O&W game will be conducted this year. Good morning Voooolnaaaation!!!!!!!!!!

[Note: Just found out the same format as last year will be used for this year's O&W game. I understand it's still a practice session but would like to see more of a real football game. So sadly, Shirley and I will fore go the costs of attending this one. We'll use the savings to attend a real game during the season.]

Love the Photoshop work, man! Love it!!!!!!!!!!!

Naw, despite her queen regal looks she's the 'Hulk" of the team, I barely rate a Rick Jones compared to her when she's truly angry. Rarely happens cause she's really sweet but when it does--OH BOY! Besides getting her up at 1:35AM when I was first on today, won't work. Unless we're going to some river or lake to fish or a Vols game and must leave very early to get there for some reason or another. Yet given the insanity you see in my posts, who can honestly blame you for thinking that. I would too. Naw, not true, I'd have worst thoughts.
