Why playing in Athens may not matter (as much)

[Volholic]

Which David Pollack can’t move past so not surprising he is a Volunteers hater.

I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to see Micheal Munoz ever again after that game.

I’d love for VOL Nation to show up like they did in LSU and have the dawg fans scratching their heads because it sounds like Tn is the home team.

You are f'n CRAZY if you think home field won't matter Saturday....crazy!!!!

This....

This would be great but it aint gonna happen.

Georgia's stadium -- not nearly as loud as some other SEC venues.

Guys....
Ga is not going to have 18 penalties...
Ga is going to have home field advantage aka crowd noise.
We haven't proven much of anything on the road this year. Pitt win late and we see now that Pitt isn't all that in a weak ACC. Whipped LSU's ass before they figured out that special teams exist.
Ga scores almost as many pts as we do
Ga gives up a lot less pts than we do

it's not gonna be a cake walk. We can win and byGoc I hope we do! But some of y'all need might be overshooting the moon on some predictions in this here thread.

Why don't you just wear your true colors on Saturday underneath your Vols gear.

Earlier Dawg turnover leads to a quick 14 point lead for the Vols. UGa crowd is taken out of it and they never recover in another Vol high scoring upset.

This wouldn't be an upset. We're the #1 team in the country.

LOL. Chill out, man. Just saying that this is gonna be a different atmosphere and will not be in our favor. A TRUE road game against the current national champion. 9 outta 10 posts here are stating that it is not gonna be a problem. I hope we win but there is 9 outta 10 in this thread that might be eating their words come Sat evening.

If you think going on the road into the current champs house won't be an issue, God bless you!

Call me narrow minded but I’m not worried at all about how we’ll play. What does concern is is the SEC officiating. It’s abysmal.

 

[perico]

It’s not that scary of a place to play. Certainly not like Neyland. In 2004, we sure shut them up by the 3rd quarter.

2006 we put up 50 points on them in Athens.

I think the biggest advantage is that the crowd can’t yell constantly! They have to catch their breath too lol.
Once the offense starts stringing together plays and moving the ball at the pace we move it is very discouraging for the fans. I am nervous and honestly feel like OSU, Ga and Bama are the 3 best teams in football. Of course we have to play 2-3 and possibly could have to play 5 games against top 3 teams to win a Championship and no other team in the country has to do that

That's always been the Vol way. When u are truly the best it don't matter who on the other side.
