During the game I heard 'Rocky Top' on more than one occasion and it was loud.

You all were loud, proud and made a difference. The players I'm sure appreciated the presence of you all.


That is all.

I was surprised how loud the cheers were on the hailmary. Watching it on tv you expect the crowd to fall silent but it was clear Volnation was out in full strength.

12th trip between the hedges. Won 7 lost 5. Lots of great games. 1992 Shulers coming out party. Todd Helton at qb in 1994. Beat down 22-3 in 1998. Boat racing them in the second half in 2006. Then the lean years. And then 2016. Never been to or even watched any game that had such drastic twists and turns, ups, downs and ups in the last two minutes. Heck the last 20 seconds. wow. This team has guts and a will to win that is pretty special. If we can heal up a little and figure out how to play well early we have a chance to be in Atlanta

I thought Rocky Top sounded loud too. I looked for at my wife and said "that's pretty loud for an away game".

I didn't think anything could top last week as far as live game experience is concerned.

I was wrong.

We were all hugging people we didn't know and celebrating like family. Amazing.

I was there behind the opposite end zone - I couldn't see the actual reception but I could see the Pride and my fellow Vols! That's how I knew we'd won! What a d@*# game!

The crazy thing was no one moved for like 5 minutes - that stadium was in shock - - we all kept waiting for the replay that never came. It's great to be a Tennessee Vol!

Was an awesome experience. I was up in the 600 level and couldn't tell who caught it but I never saw the ball hit the turf and we just erupted when the ref signaled touchdown.

Most everyone stayed celebrating until the ushers started to force everyone to start leaving.

Third time I've been there ('08,'10, and '16). Most orange I've seen but we were also expected to lose big both of those other years.

I'd say about 12 thousand. Maybe 15. They always take the score off the scoreboard almost immediately at Georgia when we win

From what I read, within ten minutes of the final play, the scoreboard was turned off. To my knowledge, that has never happened at Neyland. Just like putting Kublanow on the Tennessee game ticket. A$$hole moves.

Karma has a way of settling these things.
