"Dear Student Vol Fans,
Thank you for making your plans to be in Neyland Stadium this Saturday to help cheer on the Vols to a win over Florida!
We want to give you a heads-up that fans will not be allowed on the field at any point before or after the game for their own safety. We have been told that the team will come over to the student section to celebrate a win with students after the game.
Many of you know of stories related to rushing the field at Neyland and other stadiums. You may not know that an SEC rule was implemented just a few years ago banning any fans from going onto the field. This policy goes beyond UT.
As a result of this rule and a concern for fan safety, local law enforcement is serious about preventing a field rush on Saturday. Anyone who attempts to do so will be arrested and face university sanctions as well.
For more game day information, including more about ESPN College GameDay, which will broadcast live from our campus on Saturday, visit UT Welcomes Fans, ESPN College GameDay to Florida Game Saturday | Tennessee Today.
Enjoy the day, cheer on the Vols, celebrate the win, and stay safe.
Go Vols!
Big Orange Tix"
