Texas A&M game set for 3:30

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

Hopefully Bama roughs them up this weekend and they come in dejected!

Or they pull off the upset and they’re still in party mode when they come into Neyland and realize the party’s over.

Yep just got the notification as well. Was hoping for the night game. Instead it's the 4 hour CBS slog. Oh well. Let's hope Gary and team are disappointed throughout the game as we manhandle Jimbo's squad!

Gary is Gary, but I actually like Brad Nessler. I’m especially fond after last year now that “A knuckleball…HE GOT IT!!!” is etched in my brain.

 

[Lekvolrrah]

Ugh Gary Danielson.

I know this is dumb...

But I just feel like we aren't going to lose at home.

Agreed. Brad isn't too bad. Wasn't the biggest fan of the last guy.

With the way they played at home last week vs being on the road, it is not a bad feelng to have.

Should be a good game, looking at A&Ms wins, they are the second best unrated 4-1 team in the county I feel; UT being the first. I wouldn't be surprise

I hope they do beat turd and come in on cloud nine.

I hope they beat Bama in like 12 over times.

CBS is the standard. I’m really going to miss the SEC on CBS along with the best intro song. We don’t lose at home.

That is not dumb.

 

[Vol4gzus]

If we lose this game, we finish with at least 4 losses

Thank you! You were the first negative comment in this thread. Hope that makes you happy or does that ever occur? Remember to complain if someone gives you a brand new $100 bill and it has a crease in it . Remind us that the grass may not be greener on the other side as well. Ok I'm done. Thread was about game on cbs at 3:30. Jeepers Wally

I like the way you think !

Seeing ALOT of buzz on Twitter/x about this being the CheckerNeyland game.

 

[Volhoops]

Checker neyland game

Yeah but lets do it in dark mode colors and wear the dark mode again.

I'll be there, first time back to UT in 40 years. As great as the stadium looks and sounds at night, I was hoping for 3:30.

Nessler is a great PBP guy out of the Pat Summerall school - understated, lets the game be the star, doesn't have the diarrhea of the mouth virtually all broadcasters today have, just rock solid. The direct antithesis of the bloated ego of Lundquist, who wanted a highlight reel call on every play. Danielson is even bearable with Nessler.

You nailed it, his call on the Bama FG was one for the ages, just perfect. "He got it! ............. and here they come!"

Nessler: "It wasn't pretty, but it was beautiful."

Top drawer.

Payback time...If I remember correctly, the last time we played TaM on primetime 3:30 CBS, Kamara had a CRAZY game @ TaM, but still came away w/ the L.

ABC has much better production than CBS so I’m glad to see them take over. Won’t miss CBS one bit. Should be plenty loud for this one.

 

[TNVOLFN]

I hope they beat the spit out the Bammers and come in overconfident.

I would root for an Iranian/North Korean all star team, if they were playing Bama.

Yeah I was thinking an over confident A&M would be better.. Who knows, get the freaking W!
Go Vols!

 

[GoVols1998Yeah!]

Whelp, now we have to be 7pm drunk by 3:30...

 

[turbovol]

Gary Danielson said today that A&M's defensive front is /very good/--nearly as strong as some of best bama and georgia fronts
in recent years. He said that in its last two games, against Arkansas and Auburn, A&M had 30 tackles for loss and 15 sacks
Those are scary numbers....Will be interesting to see if bama can run the ball against the aggies.

If our run game gets stuffed, we could be in some trouble.

I don't disagree, but I'll reserve judgment the broadcasters are set. Nothing would beat getting Nessler to come over to ABC for the SEC gig.

Grandson's wedding is at 5 pm. I am seriously considering being a ceremony no show. Women scheduling weddings in October should be against the law.
