"Don’t sell your tickets," Bjork said 97.1 The Fan’s Morning Juice. "Tennessee fans, they’re rabid fans. They are going to invade The ‘Shoe. So let’s make sure we don’t have as much orange in there as people think.”

He obviously is afraid we are invading the Shoe.

Local businesses here probably have a different take. Money is colored neither orange or scarlet. It only comes in green. Visitors who travel color the area green on hotels , food, and other items home fans don't.

That is what I would think as well - local businesses would probably love to see a stadium half full of orange!

And I say over because the areas where the tickets that UT had do not have resale activity going on where it seems those tickets are located.

He’s not concerned. Smart people know the right buttons to push to be proactive and prevent a problem.

It’s a subtle challenge to OSU fans to show up in force.

I think attendance is going to come down to two things - money and weather.

Folks on forums are diehards who generally have the highest interest in attending. But for everyone on the fence, it really doesn't matter if you are a local or visitor. This game is the week before Christmas and expenses will be something a lot of people will naturally be factoring in. The fact that there is major gouging taking place doesn't help here with motivation to travel and attend.

Then the weather is also going to be a consideration, even for locals. This isn't an October game. This isn't about claims of it being colder here than Tn. But even locals on the fence are going to be asking if they really want to pay all this money to sit in 20 degree weather when they can have a fun experience at a sports bar or have a watch-party at home with the TV. This is a new type of game in that its the first ever playoff game. But it's not the finals.

This game will be a sellout even if the weather is bad. Columbus is about a 6 hr drive from Knoxville as well.
