1974 UT goes to Auburn for the first time

[Titans Fan]

Who remembers Auburn telling Tennessee that UT can’t tell AU where to play their home games?

Tennessee plays at Auburn for first time in 1974

So you’re telling me that Auburn told us that we can’t tell them where to play their home games?

My sister was a freshman at AU that fall and I went to the AU-Chattanooga game (stadium was mostly empty) when we took here down to school.

I was a freshman at UT that year. I was in the Pride of the Southland marching band and that was the only game we didn't go to that year. I listened to the game on the radio and if I remember correctly, we didn't make a first down in the first half.

I was at the game in Neyland the year before in 1973 where we won 21-0 in the pouring rain.

Was not alive then. Was Auburn a force to be reckoned with in the early 70s?
