Vols...in Prime...Time

Would have much rather had the early game that day. But at least they have turf, so hopefully our speed can be a factor. Penn State’s grass would have been purposefully used to slow us down.

I have watched them, and I know their backs are to the wall, they have the most NFL talent on their roster of any team in the country, and we do not play well on the road vs elite teams. I have a feeling this game will look much like Georgia.

They are not Georgia. Alabama and Georgia have just as much NFL talent on their rosters. We’ve played both of those and beat 1.
Dogs at home is much harder a place to play than Ohio State at home.
Kirby is light years better as a coach.
The spot that we played Georgia in spotted them 7-10 points.
Those are the type games that Georgia loves to play in. Ohio State? Not so much. They struggle mightily with the SEC, especially in meaningful games like this one.

I already bought my tickets but cant understand for the life of me why they were so cheap? In Neyland these tickets would of bee 3-4 times more. Is it because their fans are still upset about losing to UM?

I'm thinking about buying a single ticket, is that harder to do then a pair?

Have you watched Ohio State much? They have trouble stopping the run. Will Howard was bothered all year when teams threw pressure at him. They haven't had a constant offensive line and have changed it repeatedly because of injury and play. Plus, I think Day has lost that team and fan base.

I think we are the better team too but we just don’t handle road games well. My concern is we lay a gigantic egg in that atmosphere.

No way our guys won’t be up for the game. Add in their gonna feel somewhat slighted at least. Plus repping the SEC, chance to show up a team perceived as a power, plus on the road, plus playoffs, etc

Nico is gonna be pumped for a chance to go play back home. He’ll be ready for this one.

I cant believe Clemson/Texas isn't the other prime time game. That is more appealing than Indiana/ND

They just ranked them from least balanced to most balanced, purely using slating positions: 5 v 12 the evening prior, then 6 v 11 at noon, then 7 v 10 at 4pm, then 8 v 9 in prime time.

Lacking any knowledge of football, the homers at ESPN simply assumed closer in slating means closer games. Heh.

Works for us!

Go Vols!

We're repping TN, F the SEC! They tried to sacrifice us for BAMA. I rep TN not the SEC.
