During the renovation, many of the previous 41,000 seats are not available this season.
So it will be quite cozy on Saturday.

Yes and 80% of that stadium was filled with Bama fans when they pulled the upset. They didn't even have enough fans to storm the field and cover the hashmarks. But yet half of the posters on this board think its some spooky stadium that isn't friendly to visiting teams

Their stadium isn’t scary.
Their meager fan base isn’t scary.
But their team has been scary THIS year.
A lot of that is because of Pavia’s ability to pick up so many first downs and shorten the game with long time consuming drives.
That puts more pressure on opposing offenses to score on most of their few possessions.
It is IMPERATIVE that our front four on defense have good games and our LB’s bring down Pavia if he escapes containment.
We must tackle well.

Should have moved it to Titan Stadium but I’m sure Vandy was afraid we’d have 50,000 Vol fans there.

Great point. Wouldn’t they want the added revenue to help pay for their remodel? Makes no sense.
Kansas is playing most of their home games this year at Arrowhead in KC during their massive stadium remodel in Lawrence.
Not sure why Vandy didn’t make a deal with the Titans.

Kinda like one year when Clemson was good and they went to Dook for a road game. They talked about how weird and difficult it was to play in a small, quiet stadium.
Hopefully, the Vols realize how much they have to play for and will come out hot and stomp the Commodes to pieces

And they beat Bama and got close to beating the Almighty Tejas.

Your arrogance is noted, but what exactly is your point?

I'm not skeert of Vandy, I ain't skeert of nobody, and I'm confident we win this one, but it's stupid to act like this game has already been won. Lol.

Errbody done gone lost they Mines round here.

I'm guessing the Titans wouldn't just let them play there for free. The added ticket sales might not have made up for the added expense.

I'm not sure it's the actual stadium that's got some fans concerned. It's the reality that, for whatever reason, this UT team just doesn't play well away from home. Such a huge game for this team and program awaits Saturday. Hoping this is where it all clicks and we finally seize upon that opportunity.

I have heard that restroom facilities are limited as well. Someone had posted they went to the men's room during second quarter and didn't get back until third quarter was over. Something to think about.

I'm sorry to break this to you, but playing Vandy at Vandy or at Neyland is a home game regardless.
