Actual attendance was less than 45k, which puts UT 6th in the SEC but still top 10 in the nation. SEC loves them some foolsball.

Every time a football game is being played at Neyland stadium, it should be at or above capacity. No excuses. So no the fans did not do their job.

Where did you get that number? And if that’s the real number where did the higher number come from?

So half the population of China wasn’t there like you predicted? Or was the fire marshal just covering?

Anyone have an opinion of the two possibly incoming grad transfer corners? I don't see them not starting right away.... Just wanting an opinion/opinions.

1. Chryst will back up JG
2. London, not sure what to think of him. If I had to guess, he’ll be s situational, short yardage guy who’ll back up Chandler and Jordan....unless freshman Banks assumes the role ahead of him.

Nothing wrong with what he said yesterday. This coach is raising the bar asking everyone to do more. If we had 65 this year let's get 85 next year. If we as fans ask him to get us to Atlanta he can ask us to be the best fans in the country. Tough love at times is the best thing we can sing and hug when we get to the top.

CJP is making $3.8 million to get us to the Atlanta. I am not flying in from TX for a scrimmage.

Bad news. I think that the guy standing on the 50 that was counting might have counted me twice.

I think Pruitt just expects a lot from not just his players, but everyone in the UT program. I think it’s refreshing.

And you my friend would count as one of the fans he mentioned that couldn't be here which is understandable. So why even comment? Thousands of fans that live in Knoxville didn't attend.

I don't think hes wrong to be disappointed, hes trying to change a program that has been lack luster the last decade. Butch Jones put Knoxville into a football coma, he wore people down with his bs and slogans. Pruitt is trying to breathe life into this program and it would seem he has a now plan vs a long term plan. Hes blunt and to the point, I appreciate that. 2 years ago we had a HC tell us we should be happy with making bowl games and satisfied with champions of life. Pruitt is a of you ain't first your last and refuses to accept mediocrity and that is the formula for success.

If you live in Knoxville, didn’t have to work or other obligations and had the gas money, you missed out by not going.

I live 4 hours away. Literally the only cost I incurred were gas money, a hot dog and two cokes. Great way to spend a nice Saturday.
