atlanta (feb. 16, 2012) – the chick-fil-a kickoff game will open the 2012 college football season with the first-ever double hosting of marquee, bcs-style games on back-to-back days in the same venue.

The first game will feature nc state versus tennessee on friday, aug. 31. The second game will pit auburn against clemson on saturday, sept. 1.

The nc state-tennessee game will be telecast aug. 31 on espnu and the auburn-clemson game will be telecast sept. 1 on abc or espn. Game times are yet to be determined.

This marks the first time in college football history where two games of this magnitude have been hosted in the same facility, by the same organizer on consecutive days.

Between the two games, more than 145,000 fans are expected to be in atlanta to celebrate the opening of the 2012 season and be a part of history. All four teams and their fans will be in atlanta at the same time, creating a college football celebration of epic proportions. The pair of chick-fil-a kickoff games is expected to generate more than $60 million in economic impact.

I'm not sure Allen isn't still feeling that hit. That hit and the Bill Bates hit from Walker are the 2 worst that I can recall. I think they happened about the same spot on the field.

I'll have a very pregnant wife then, but am going to try and make the trip from Nashville. No excuses this year! My wife and the Vols need to suck it up!

Seriously son? A word to the wise from a marriage vet:

Don't anger the bear, especially when she's pregnant.

There is a troll that has that #1 on the end of his name...I think he is Tennvol#1 or some such. I have to stop and think every time I see your name.

VollyGirl can change it for you if you wish? Something a little more calm and relaxing...???

How 'bout

I wonder how many High school coaches are trying to get their games re-scheduled for a thursday night... I know I would.

When I moved to Bowling Green four years ago, I thought I'd be one of the only Vol fans around. I'm finding out that there are more than I imagined....and I like it!!

Welcome vol fan in Bowling Green. When you drive to Knoxville, do you take I-40 or the Cumberland Parkway? I've always enjoyed the parkway, better scenery and a lot less traffic even though maybe 30 miles longer drive its worth it. Think it ends up about the same drive time. The VOLS must end a 6 game losing streak in the Dome.

It doesn't seem too hard to get off one day of work with the title "volunteer" thrown in there. Tell them you have something to do that day, it's not like they are paying you right?

NC State doesn't have much history in football.OBrien could buy tickets and he won't be able to give them away we will be 2to1 in fans if not more.I'm glad it took a coach calling us out to get people to go.And we wonder why we have thousands of emptys every home game.I'm sorry pride should put you in the seats
