What advantage did Georgia State have over TN in 2019?

Where’s that picture of the last coach with the checkered neck wrap pulled up around his head?

Very hot game in August for a Northern Team!

Mercedes Bend stadium is a climate-controlled stadium can be indoor or outdoor. I assume if its real hot outside it will be closed for indoor and 68 to 72 degrees playing indoor.

Almost as nervous about this game as I was about nc state last year. And I wasn’t worried about nc state last year.

Vols by a lot.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

We don’t really know what advantages we have because this is a completely new team

The crowd will be predominantly UT fans.

This is comparing apples to hand grenades dude

Ga. State had the advantage when dummy germmy treated the game like a scrimmage. Just unreal.

Connecticut? That's Eastern Time.

I read this as Connecticut too. Are there even any football fans in Connecticut? Lol

But I think he meant central time. As a West Tennessee flatlander, I don't like these noon kicks. Eleven am local time is entirely too early for football.

1st...ours is likely the best / most competitive game on the slate that day.

2nd...I had a feeling from.the get go.it would be a Noon game. I don't ever recall a.neutral site game on Labor Day weekend NOT being a Noon kick.

Last season Clemson vs UGA in Atlanta was a noon kickoff too. We’re the undercard on ABC that weekend with Bama vs FSU being more named programs, despite Syracuse being better than FSU last year (maybe this year) and obviously LSU at Clemson is a huge draw for the casual football fan for the night game.

Honestly, that was a bogus PI call.

Really, thats funny since the SEC, Big East and NCAA all confirmed it was the correct call.

I was referring more to roster advantages.

I want to go as I have not been to Mercedes Benz Stadium before and can say I have seen Syracuse play in football.

Yeah
I am with you there because you never really know what a team is until they get out on the field. If you believe that recruiting rankings matter, then UT has a huge roster advantage compared to cuse. Heupel's last 4 classes finished 11th, 14th, 10th, and 17th while Syracuse finished 41st, 37th, 88th, and 68th according to 247 https://247sports.com/season/2025-football/compositeteamrankings/ .

We will manhandle them like we do to teams from that conference. I actually think our offensive line will be a better functioning unit this year.

Great news. That means a midnight kickoff for me.
