I am so glad we have a free site like Volnation. Could you imagine trying to deal with this?

You would think that Music City bowl would want two teams where both fan bases would have to travel and get a hotel to spend a few days spending money at various attractions around the city....but most of our fan base will just either drive up the day of or the day before.

Guess it depends on who the stakeholders are. Obviously the city is involved in some way, but not sure they're up there with the major sponsors - who might just want TV eyes on the game, commercials, banners rather than caring about city tax revenues.

Purdue has not faced an offense like ours all season....the closest one in Ohio State...they gave up 59 points.

Ratings will be trash since it’s 1pm on a Thursday. Most working folks can’t even watch the game.

SIAP

Shootout baby.

Just read that Cincinnati is on a long winning streak-- last time they were beat was by Georgia in a New Years 6 bowl by three points (2019) I'm rooting for them.

Holy 1999 Batman!

How do you explain to a kid what the "TransPerfect" means in the TransPerfect Bowl game????

Wokeness smh

 

[gainesvol82]

Not sure if mentioned but this matchup with the Purdue Oxycontinmakers could be interesting. They beat teams in the passing game and we won't have Alontae. I hope Young and Harrison can get some pressure on their QB because I don't fully trust our secondary except for Theo.

 

[Pridedad]

What I heard from this interview is he wished the Vols would have beaten the dawgs.

 

[Dudley Smith]

I think the sponsor is a translation service

Language & Technology Solutions for Business | TransPerfect

 

[OrangenSC]

They’re making our past look… non-dysfunctional? Functional?

I find it interesting that so many are criticizing this, yet the opinion of so many here, and I think CFB in general, is that you're inept if you don't have your next coach lined up before you fire a coach.

The fact that it is going public is a separate issue and not the one being criticized.

 

[Geronimo]

Well…Haselwood is not coming here. That’s one off the board.

I was born in NW Indiana and raised in Tennessee. So, oddly enough, my two favorite teams are UT and Purdue. to be clear, UT is far and away my favorite.

[BleedorangeinGA]

I’m guessing Vegas will see this game Tennessee -3.5 or 4 favorite

 

[theutvolunteers]

Purdue leads all time series 1-0

 

[ndubvols]

Seems like we may finally have a little Mo recruiting. Land a couple dline studs and Huep could really be cooking.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

What a mess

It's a language translation service

Bowl game gets more attendance. 2 of the top 3 Music City Bowl game attendance numbers were UT games. Rounding out the top 4, the other 2 games were UK games… again, not that far to travel for them either. Downtown Broadway will still get a ton of business and the hotels definitely won’t be hurting as New Years Eve is the next day and hotels are absolutely packed around that time.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

What a mess

Supposedly he has by midday tomorrow to make his decision or Miami will be keeping Manny Diaz. This coming from Ross Dellenger.

 

[Jack Burton]

Because some think UT has a birth rite to be in a "Fla Bowl" every year.

It was perfectly reasonable to expect a Gator bowl bid after this season. We went to the 2015 Gator bowl on 6 wins, and the 2020 Gator Bowl on 7 wins.

Reasonable expectation is fine….it’s the Deserving part that I was commenting on
