The Pitts

[WoodsmanVol]

I wonder if the Johnny Majors Classic between the Vols and the Panthers will be played again at a future date? I can't see it being a one shot home and home deal. maybe once every two or three years?

meh

No.

There's not that much chemistry between the two programs.

It was a nice tribute to Coach Majors. Now we can let it be.

Pitt needs us for that game a lot more than we need Pitt.

 

[Rocky Top T]

No

Living in Pittsburgh I'm all for it, but don't think it'll happen again

 

[WoodsmanVol]

Thanks for the replies. I sort of liked the idea of a continuing series. Though I'd prefer one with Norte Dame because I detest their arrogant azzes. And like it when, whoever it is, takes them down.

Pittsburgh couldn't even feel 2/3 of their stadium for the game. It's hard to see this being that big of a deal. Then again for Pittsburgh feeling 2/3 of your stadium maybe a breakthrough!

Need a game against Colorado before Primetime leaves.

 

[Voldog1998]

I want a series with Penn.St I want some paypack for the 1994 Citrus Bowl and 2007 Outback bowl two games I went to and saw us lose to Joe Pa.

I want 3 cupcakes if we play 9 SEC games. We need to be 100% healthy for those if possible.

I remember watching the 07 Outback bowl. I was driving (either to NY or back to GA on leave). Stopped to eat in VA, and ended up sitting next to Penn State fans at the bar.

Not going to happen, I bet he will not be there over 2 years.

As the NCAA weakens and we drift toward 2 major conferences and everybody else, I think the Big 10 and SEC should shun the ACC teams.

Their big buyout makes the inevitable harder to accomplish and the SEC and Big 10 should pressure them to let the good teams leave so football can "re-align" into post-NCAA divisions.

Exactly. Zero incentive now to schedule hard OOC games. The teams worth a damn you will see in an expanded playoff format anyways if you make it

 

[Go Fight Win]

would not be mad at Oregon again

 

[Vol737]

Scheduling a non con team like Pitt every two to three years would be excessive and not allow better non con games. Need to spread it around a good bit. Would like to renew with UCLA, maybe OK State, Notre Dame or a B1G school. Washington is on the schedule in the upcoming years. Virginia and UTSA this fall could be interesting.

I’m just wary of the Akron type programs out there.. they stink and they injure your players.. so maybe not so bottom of the barrel OOC games lol

I would make most games in State to keep revenue up for in state programs. OOC games that are completely out of the region are stupid imo.

No.

It's huge for our brand.
It exposes other markets to us.
And it's fun for the Vol fans that can travel.

Dont either but I sure enjoyed going to Pittsburgh. One of our favorite sports towns.

 

[N.ohio vol]

I'm glad my wife and I made it to the Pitt Tennessee game in Neyland. It definitely had a special atmosphere that day. Came up on the wrong end that day, But got to see Hendon get his first opportunity. Enjoyed seeing the Pittsburgh and Tennessee fans mesh for Majors.

I'd be all for that one.
