Tennessee-Vanderbilt football game Poll Question

[VolFootballnut]

Would y'all like the Tennessee-Vanderbilt game to be played on Thanksgiving in the future? I think it would be pretty cool and get a lot of coverage on ESPN.

 

[Vol_til_I_die]

Doesn't matter when we play it. We won't get a lot of coverage because of, well, Vanderbilt.

 

[MiddleTnVol]

I'd keep it Saturday. If it were a bigger "rivalry" then maybe they could move to Thursday or Friday but as long as Vandy is Vandy it will never happen.

 

[Chilmonty]

Unless it would mean an extra couple million for the AD, then no!

Nah, Vanderbilt isn't important enough to interrupt my thanksgiving dinner.

 

[RockyTop411]

No, I have family come in for Thanksgiving and I'd like to spend it with them and leave it on Saturday so I can go to the game and make a day out of it. JMO

Vanderbilt is only a big game if we're 11-0

 

[crusse10]

Sundays, Mondays, and Thanksgiving are for NFL.

 

[MT LeConte]

No, eat with the family on Thursday and Friday and off to the game on Saturday.

Tennessee should never play a Thursday game that isn't a bowl game

Do you plan on watching USF vs. UCF or Texas Tech vs. Texas on Thurs.?

I promise, neither one of these game will get a lot of exposure/ coverage.

 

[utvolpj]

Why would it get extra coverage?

I'll be watching College Football,i prefer it to the two hand touch league the NFL has become.

Because there are stiffer penalties in the NFL for illegal hits? And they can't overturn missed calls that lead to suspensions?

Big boy college football should only be played on Saturday.:hi:

That's fine...but the TV ratings will tell a different story.

You barely touch the quarterback and you get a penalty. Things like that.

Hasn't college adopted all rules that protect quarterbacks that the NFL has implemented? Still feels like college has more safety measures in place than the pros, mostly thanks to the targeting rule.

I think having competent refs would probably help both college and NFL....but that probably won't happen.

I just don't know if it's possible to get more competent than what's in the NFL. Only way may be adding a few more per game.

Packers vs. Bears TG night . :good!:

I can't wait. My parents and I (big Packers fans) are going to my friend's place for a joint Thanksgiving. His family is from Illinois.

Have safe trip and enjoy one of the NFL's oldest rivalries !

 

[wesleydmartin]

im cool with it, always like those tip off games to start season, we had one on a sunday or monday a few years back right......

but to ur poll questions sure.....but if not all good continuing on saturday, would prefer the thursday to friday set up though.....

 

[VolBricks]

I think TN should play Vandy every Thursday during football season. It would make for a good practice for the Saturday opponent.
