It should be noted this game is on Thursday. Big freaking deal.
I'd puke if it was the usual ACC games we get on ESPN Thursdays.
a lot of Big East games too
It was brought up several years ago as a topic of interest, but both the UT administration as well as a large portion of outspoken fans quickly put that issue to rest.
It will be a long time, if ever, before UT plays on a Thursday night.
The Dude said:It seems like we did in the mid-90s, not at home of course. Ole Miss maybe?
Thursday night is for the games that generally aren't good enough to be on TV on Saturday. The power conferences dominate Saturday TV time, and the weaker conferences are stuck with vying for the Thursday night slot. Usually it's either a game between some lower echelon ACC or Big East teams or a game from C-USA, WAC, or MWest.
I agree with kptvol on this one. Big freakin' deal. I think it says more about Vandy and SCar's status as perennially crappy SEC teams.
