Not looking good so far. Traffic was very light coming in and the parking lot is only about half full (last week we had to go to an overflow lot which was also full)

Good news is we had more room to set up our Tail Gate Golf game -- and the beverages are flowing if anyone stops by. 😎. Go Vols

They need to stop scheduling FCS teams. This all started in 2010 when we played UT-Martin. Now we play a FCS team just about every year. I refuse to go to these terrible games.

Unfortunately, that's what you're going to get when the 12th game was added.

UT is the only SEC school to do this. It's gotta stop!

Not true. I saw UT play Vandy in 94.

Well, I was going to go. I had 5 tickets and 2 nights at the Holiday Inn Worlds Fair Park, totaling right around $775 + gas from SC, food, VolShop, etc...so about $1200 for the weekend. But then I watched the coaches quit at halftime last week and became a little less enthused, so I sold my tickets on StubHub and got a refund from Holiday Inn.

Beat a real team every now and then if you want people to show up to these scrub games.

As long as we have team of the Oklahoma, Notre Dame, UCLA caliber on the non- conference schedule it doesn't matter who the cupcakes are.

Why miss a chance to watch our beloved Volunteeers in person? We have bigger crowds for practices and the Orange & White game.

I'm sure a lot of people were turned off last week when the coaching staff laid down and quit trying on offense. I'm here to support the players

Nah sorry, we're all supposed to turn in our orange and whites and go cheer for someone else now because UT lost.

It is not the first game of the season and going to these games is very expensive. So why not just save about $400 bucks (and that is only if you do not have to rent a hotel room) and watch it at home when the opponent is Central Carolina.
