In the remake of dirty dancing.. The main guy tells his friend (when he meets him) that he should try wearing some orange because so people could see him with all the camp on.. In which the kid replies
"I don't wear orange.. I'm a Georgia bulldog"
That's a reference to us.. And the kid that says it kinda looks like peyton

I remember seeing Smokey in one of those scenes.

It's not directly related to UT, but Quentin Tarantino has thrown some Knoxville references in his movies.

Tarantino was born in Knoxville, every one of his movies has a reference to east Tennessee.

Not related to TN football but in the John Wayne movie Sands of Iwo Jima Smithville TN is mentioned. Also calls TN the volunteer state and the best state in the union.

Old reference I know but nice to have my hole in the wall hometown mentioned in a movie.

Good call! They filmed a few plays at halftime. I was at the game (Williams Brice), and they had to attempt the "game winning pass" a few times because they dropped it. Kinda like my brother and I playing in the backyard as kids... The biggest thing I remember about that game was we lost. It was the first game that I went to that UT did not win. I remember watching the movie later on and thinking how cool it was to see the UT sections in the stadium. If I remember correctly, you saw the most orange on an Omar Epps punt return.

23 UT 24 USCe. Halloween game.
