You make good points. But I still don't think it helps a prospect with a decision to pick Tennessee or even influence them on liking our team. Does it provide more tv time? Yes... Does it influence recruits? I don't see how.

Like JP said, It gets exposure to all areas of the country and beyond. For example, say there is a prospect from Cali that, otherwise, wouldn't consider UT but because he watches gameday might be more inclined to consider an SEC school who plays big stage games. Everyone knows that the biggest game each weak is usually the one that Gameday attends and that is attractive to prospects who wouldn't otherwise be exposed to UT.

Bummer. Well, for me at least. Still not 100% sure that I will be able to make this game (crossing my fingers) due to logistics such as no hotels anywhere near the stadium. Gameday being here means the likelihood of Gameday at the Florida game just two weeks later is severely unlikely. Personally, I was hoping to have Gameday at Neyland. But unless it's the Bama game, I doubt we see them in Knoxville now. :(

Prob were never gonna have Gameday for UF because CBS will probably pick up that game. Gotta deal with Verne for one more season.

Still looking for tickets! Somebody help me out.

My friend and I are too wimpy to risk waiting to buy scalped tickets at the track. Makes us too nervous to drive that long without having tickets. So, we bought five tics in Earnhardt Terrace, Section N, Row 7 for $240 a pop on Stubhub (on the side, not the endzone). There were some slightly less expensive seats ($190-$220) available, but they were on the VT side and on the ends. We figured that it was worth it too buy sidelines seats because sitting on the end will probably mean you are about a half-mile away from the opposite endzone. I'm ecstatic that I'm going now that the tickets are bought, but any ticket at this point will prob be at least around $200 a piece. Stubhub has tickets available, and I'm sure there are other second market sites with them.

Good! We get to break our losing streak with them as well!

And avenge our VT loss of a few years back to boot!
